- ProGram, a grammar based communication protocol description language, is used for architectural independent modelling of device drivers and bus interfaces for mixed hardware/software systems. The specification of the protocol is separated from the description of processor bus interfaces and operating system device driver interfaces, which ensures a high efficiency in device driver development and maintenance. A synthesis method for device drivers is presented together with results on modelling and implementation efficiency for both device drivers and bus interfaces.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Grammars define syntax of languages and as such have not been commonly considered as methods for design, despite well-known applications in computer science. Only in recent years grammar-based design has become a promising research field and the first commercial tools have appeared on the market. This paper reviews the basic concepts of applying grammars to electronic design - in particular to the device driver synthesis of communication protocols for embedded software, to the design of custom-hardware, and to the virtual prototyping of DSP systems. The paper shows the power of these methods, presents the latest research results and discusses future developments in this field.
