Hardware/software co-design then and now
Special issue: Contribution to computing scienceHardware/software co-design recently became a field of research and a method of development both important and fashionable. We show that it is a technique already used some decades ago, and discuss its various aspects, forms and benefits. At the same ...
Now: a discourse-based theory
