Abstract
Embedded signal processing system designers need to be able to prototype their designs quickly and validate them early. This must be done in a manner that avoids premature commitment to the implementation target, especially when that target includes costly COTS parallel multiprocessing hardware. A new specification and design methodology known as MAGIC enables the designer to move from an executable specification through design exploration and on to implementation with minimal loss of specification and design information by leveraging compuation middleware (VSIPL) and communication middleware (MPI). Maintaining such information is a quality known as “model continuity,” which is established using the MAGIC specification and design methodology.
