     13ADAM stands for "Adaptive Dynamic Architecture for MP2SoCs". It is  a prospective research project accepted and funded
     14by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR)
    1215that directly addresses the hot topic of MPSoC self-adaptability to altered operating
    1316conditions, like loss of performance, appearance of faulty hardware resources, and
     
    1518Parallel Multi-Processor systems on chip (more than one hundred of processing elements)

     20the application), but structurally heterogeneous (with different and process dependent
    1821performances, electrical and timing characteristics and reliability). Taking simultaneously
    1922these problems into account is mandatory to ensure the reliability and competitiveness of

    33  * LETI (Laboratory for Electronics & Information Technology) is operated by the Technology
    34  Department of CEA (DRT "Direction de la Recherche Technologique"), the French Atomic Energy
    35  Commission. LETI is one of the largest European applied research laboratories in the field
    36  of electronics: permanent staff is approximately 1200 people. The main activities of CEA/LETI
    37  are dealing with electronics, microelectronics, microsystems and IC design.
    38 
    39 Its corporate goal is to bring technological innovation to the European industry, and to create
    40 added value through an active Intellectual Property policy based on the management of strong patent
    41 portfolio (> 500 active patents, and more than 140 filings/year) and the licensing of its technologies.
    42 For more than ten years, LETI has been working on wireless systems for several applications fields:
    43 medical (indoor), military (outdoor), robotics, mobiles phones and communications with mobiles
    44 (cars, trains, underground, etc.). LETI is currently involved in several R&D telecom project
    45 of the 6th Framework.
    46 
    47 The DCIS Department (DCIS: "Conception et Intégration des Systèmes") at LETI is in charge of
    48 the IC design activities, and is currently addressing the following topics:
    49 -       digital and mixed chip design for telecom, smart cards, RFID, image processing, smart devices, etc.
    50 -       architecture exploration (HW/SW partitioning, performance evaluation, etc.)
    51 -       design flow methodology (SystemC/TLM methodology, XML/Spirit, Matlab/Simulink co simulation, etc).
    52 
    53 An important concern at LETI is the design of mixed signal, multi-physics systems with
    54 sensors/activators (MEMS, MOEMS, etc.), RF front-end and complex SOC design and architecture.
    55 
    56 LETI is now reference as a world wide key actor in the field of network on chip (NOC) architecture:
    57 refer to LETI papers at the ISSCC'07 conference. An innovative Software Defined Radio platform based
    58 on fully distributed communication and control system has been designed. This architecture framework
    59 is targeting complex data flow applications. The backbone of the architecture is a layered asynchronous
    60 NOC that brings scalability at architecture level and flexibility at the application level.
    61 Silicon proves these concepts, and is currently used for complex Radio Access technology experimentation.
