UML for SOC Design

A tutorial approach to using the UML modeling language in system-on-chip design

Based on the DAC 2004 tutorial, applicable for students and professionals

Contributions by top-level international researchers

The best work at the first UML for SoC workshop

Unique combination of both UML capabilities and SoC design issues

Condenses research and development ideas that are only found in multiple conference proceedings and many other books into one place

Will be the seminal reference work for this area for years to come

Autorentext
Both Dr. Grant Martin and Dr. Wolfgang Müller have authored and edited successful books for Kluwer in the past, and they are internationally recognized as been experts in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) as well as System-on-Chip design
