\begin{objectif}
This task deals with the prototyping and the generation of FPGA-SoC digital systems.
Its is described on figure~\ref{archi-csg}.
Its objective is to allow the system designer to explore the design space by
quickly prototyping and then to automatically generate the FPGA-SoC systems.
This task consists of
\begin{itemize}
\item The development of all the missing components (SytemC models and/or synthesizable VHDL models 
of the IP-cores),
\item The configuration and the development of drivers of the operating systems (Board Support Package, HAL),
\item The CSG software that generates the SystemC simulators for prototyping and the FPGA-SoC system
including its bitstream and software executable code,
\item The specification of enhanced communication schemes and their sofware and hardware implementations.
\end{itemize}
This task being based on the SoCLib platform, a first release will be delivered at $T0+12$
to allow the demonstrators to start working.
This release will include the standard communication schemes (based on SoCLib MWMR component)
and support the neutral architectural template for prototyping and hardware generation.
\end{objectif}

\subtask This \ST deals with the components of the architectural templates.
    \\
    For the neutral architectural template, it consists of the development of the VHDL
    synthesizable description of the missing communication components (MWMR)
        in order to support the process network communication model. 
    Notice that the SystemC models
    comes from the SocLib ANR project, the processor with its cache comes from the TSAR
    ANR project.
    \\
    For the \xilinx and \altera architectural templates, we use the \xilinx and \altera IPs (NIOS, Microblaze, memories, busses...).
