Heterogeneous multi-core environment integrated with different functional cores is the powerful tool for the embedded system that became more complex and diverse. Specialized application requires one chip solution with different operating system over different cores. But this heterogeneity causes difficult configuration of the development environment, makes hard to develop and test software. We show the environment of heterogeneous multi-core processing can be mapped to symmetric multi-core environment. We construct Linux based RPMsg for the data exchange between processes similar with the heterogeneous multi-core RPMsg and experiment that the proposed environment can be used to reduce the steps of the heterogeneous multi-core application development. With this simplification, we suggest simulation method for easy development and debugging the heterogeneous multicore environment that makes complex steps to simple.
