This paper realize power control embedded system with one master of Core-A 32-bit RISC processor and several slaves controling power with synchronized digital signals. Core-A platform provided by Dynalith Systems consists of Core-A processor, AMBA bus, SSRAM, AC97, DMA, UART, GPIO etc. Slave is made by both digital part and analog part. The former generates various power control patterns synchronized with master signal. The latter converts 220V power proportional to 4 bit digital signals. Design of Embedded system is executed in Flowrian2 of System Centroid Inc., in which software is cross-compiled and hardware is verified by simulation. Embedded system is implemented in FPGA board and CPLD chips as well as PCB board for analog power control.

In SOC(System On a Chip) designs, reducing time and cast for design verification is the most critical to improve the design productivity. this is mainly because the designs require co-verifying HW together with SW, which results in the increase of verification complexity drastically. In this paper, to cope with the verification crisis in SOC designs, we propose a new verification methodology, so called integrated co-verification, which lightly combine both co-simulation and co-emulation in unified and seamless way. We have applied our integrated co-verification to ARM/AMBA platform-based co-verification environment with a commercial co-verification tool, Seamless CVE, and a physical prototyping board. The experiments has shown clear advantage of the proposed technique over conventional ones.

Recently, as the design of a system gets larger and more complex, functional verification method based on system-level becomes more important. The verification of a functional block mainly uses BFM(bus functional model). The larger the burden on functional verification is, the more the importance of configuring a proper verification environment increases rapidly. SystemVerilog unifies hardware design languages and verification languages in the form of extensions to the Veri log HDL. The processing of design description, function simulation and verification using same language has many advantages in system development. In this paper, we design DUT that is composed of AMBA bus and function blocks using SystemVerilog and verify the function of DUT in verification environment using layered testbench. Adaptive FIR filter and Booth's multiplier are chosen as function blocks. We confirm that verification environment can be reused through a minor adaptation of interface to verify functions of other DUT.

For high density SoC design, on-chip communication based on bus interconnection encounters bandwidth limitation while an NoC(Network-on-Chip) approach suffers from unacceptable complexity in its Implementation. This paper introduces a new on-chip communication protocol, SNP (SoC Network Protocol) to overcome these problems. In SNP, conventional on-chip bus signals are categorized into three groups, control, address, and data and only one set of wires is used to transmit all three groups of signals, resulting in the dramatic decrease of the number of wires. SNP efficiently supports master-master communication as well as master-slave communication with symmetric channels. A sequencing rule of signal groups is defined as a part of SNP specification and a phase-restoration feature is proposed to avoid redundant signals transmitted repeatedly over back-to-back transactions. Simulation results show that SNP provides about the same bandwidth with only $54\%$ of wires when compared with AMBA AHB.

In this paper, we designed ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptographic) Processor with Bus-splitting mothod for embedded SoC. ECC SIP is designed by VHDL RTL modeling, and implemented reusably through the procedure of logic synthesis, simulation and FPGA verification. To communicate with ARM9 core and SIP, we designed SIP bus functional model according to AMBA AHB specification. The design of ECC Processor for platform-based SoC is implemented using the design kit which is composed of many devices such as ARM9 RISC core, memory, UART, interrupt controller, FPGA and so on. We performed software design on the ARM9 core for SIP and peripherals control, memory address mapping and so on.

본 논문에서는 임베디드 시스템 온칩 적용을 위한 통합 보안 프로세서를 SIP(Semiconductor Intellectual Property)로 설계하였다. 각각의 SIP는 VHDL RTL로 모델링하였으며, 논리합성, 시뮬레이션, FPGA 검증을 통해 재사용이 가능하도록 구현하였다. 또한 ARM9과 SIP들이 서로 통신이 가능하도록 AMBA AHB의 스펙에 따라 버스동작모델을 설계, 검증하였다. 플랫폼기반의 통합 보안 SIP는 ECC, AES, MD-5가 내부 코어를 이루고 있으며 각각의 SIP들은 ARM9과 100만 게이트 FPGA가 내장된 디바이스를 사용하여 검증하였으며 최종적으로 매그나칩 $0.25{\mu}m(4.7mm\times4.7mm)$ CMOS 공정을 사용하여 MPW(Multi-Project Wafer) 칩으로 제작하였다.

To produce of transgenic orchardgrass, the seed-derived calli of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) co-cultivated with Agrobacterium turnefaciens EHAlOl harboring binary vector pIG121-Hm were selected with hygromycin and then transferred onto N6 regeneration medium containing 1 rngl l of NAA, 5 rngl l of kinetin, 250 rngl l of carbenicillin and 50 mg/ l of hygromycin. The efficiency of transformation was differed on cultivars, that is, 'Potomac' appeared 12% of transformation efficiency while 'Amba' did 5.5%. The addition of acetosyringone during co-cultivation was a key to successhl transformation of orchardgrass. Transgene fragments were identified by PCR analysis and the constitutive expression of GUS gene was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. (Key words : Acetosyringone, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), Transformation)

We present a low-power MPEG-4 video codec chip capable of delivering high-quality video data in wireless multimedia applications. The discussion will focus on the architectural design techniques for implementing a high-performance video compression/decompression chip at low power architectures. The proposed MPEG-4 video codec can perform 30 frames/s of QCIF or 7.5 frame/s of CIF at 27MHz for 128k∼144kbps. By introducing the efficiently optimized Frame Memory Interface architecture, low power motion estimation and embedded ARM microprocessor and AMBA interface, the proposed MPEG-4 video codec has low power consumption for wireless multimedia applications such as IMT-2000.
