Celem prezentowanej pracy była analiza wykonalności, a następnie zaprojektowanie, implementacja i przetestowanie oryginalnego oprogramowania wpierającego proces projektowania systemów wbudowanych. Chodziło o możliwość połączenia zalet oprogramowania narzędziowego szybkiego wytwarzania aplikacji rekonfigurowalnych (CoDeveloper; Impulse) z możliwościami narzędzi graficznego projektowania i obrazowania (MATLAB/Simulink). Założony cel został osiągnięty.

Computation platforms of embedded systems evolved, from being based on traditional microcontrollers and signal processors separately, to complex systems built with FPGA devices [1, 2]. However, complexity of hardware description languages and hardware skills requirements were the major limitations of generalization of these naturally evolved platforms in embedded systems design. The solution was to create tools that could give software developers a possibility to use the potential of programmable logic devices without considerable knowledge of hardware and hardware description languages [5]. This work presents an idea of bridging two different design tools; CoDeveloper [9] and MATLAB/Simulink [8] in context convergent processor paradigm [3, 4]. As the result, virtually new environment (Integrating Application) for devel-opment, simulation and verification of digital signal processing algorithms in embedded system domain was created. Fig. 1 shows the block diagram of Integrating Application structure in which it is possible to exchange data in real time with reconfigurable embedded system hardware being under development. Connection of these two tools allows getting additional features that support development process, and which are beyond the basic sum of features originally offered by these tools separately. Smulink models can represent Impulse C models, to mention the one characteristic.
