The embedded software design cost represents an important percentage of the embedded-system development costs. This paper presents a method for systematic embedded software generation that reduces the software generation cost in a platform-based HW/SW codesign methodology for embedded systems based on SystemC. The goal is that the same SystemC code allows system-level specification and verification, and, after SW/HW partitioning, SW/HW co-simulation and embedded software generation. The C++ code for the SW partition (processes and process communication, including HW/SW interfaces) is systematically generated, including the user-selected embedded OS (e.g.: the eCos open source OS).
