| Title | Configurable Multi-Processor Platforms for Next Generation Embedded Systems |
| Author | *David Goodwin, Chris Rowen, Grant Martin (Tensilica, United States) |
| Abstract | Next-generation embedded systems in application domains such as multimedia, wired and wireless communications, and multipurpose portable devices, are increasingly turning to multiprocessor platforms as a vehicle for their realization. But entirely fixed platforms composed of entirely fixed components lack the flexibility and ability to be optimized to the application to offer the best solution in any of these areas. Configurability at multiple levels offers a much better chance to optimize the resulting multiprocessor platform. Existing and emerging technologies for configurable and extensible processors and the creation of configurable multiprocessor subsystem platforms offer significant capability to design teams to both differentiate and optimize their products. |

| Title | ARM MPCore The Streamlined and Scalable ARM11 Processor Core |
| Author | *Kazuyuki Hirata (ARM, Japan), John Goodacre (ARM, Great Britain) |
| Abstract | The required processing performance of embedded processor core is getting higher and higher without increasing power consumption dramatically. In same time, large SoC design has more risk of re-spin and long design time due to the complexity and difficulty of verification. ARM offers multi core solution to overcome such a situation over various applications. |

| Title | Nomadik®: A Mobile Multimedia Application Processor Platform |
| Author | *Maurizio Paganini (STMicroelectronics, France) |
| Abstract | The Nomadik® platform supports a range of consumer-oriented multimedia applications, and is specifically designed for mobile applications. The combined use of industry standard host processor, and multiple low-power DSPs associated with dedicated hardware accelerators make for a flexible, yet low-cost and low-power solution. |
