Abstract

Chapter 6 6. INTRODUCTION This chapter demonstrates the applicability and benefits of the proposed platform-centric SoC design approach by using it to develop a simplified digital camera system. A digital camera is a complex system comprising both mechanical and electronic components—rendering it very well-suited as an application case study for this book. The chapter starts by giving an overview of typical digital camera operations, as well as relevant mechanical and electronic components. Thereafter a set of general requirements is given, and the CMF development process begins in the manner prescribed by this book in earlier chapters. After detailing the tasks involved in each main step of the platform-centric development process flow, i.e., the platform- independent, platform-analysis, platform-dependent, and system derivation process steps, the chapter concludes by comparing cost-effectiveness of the proposed approach utilizing parametric cost estimation models, such as COCOMO II.2000. 6.1 Digital Camera System Comparing to a traditional film camera, a digital camera operates very much on the same principle, although minute operational details differ considerably.
