Method and system for hierarchical hardware mapping for software design
First Claim
1. A method for hierarchical hardware mapping in a software design environment comprising:
- providing a software design tool on a graphical interface of a computer system;
receiving, in the software design tool, graphical representation of at least a portion of software;
receiving, in the software design tool, graphical representation of at least a portion of hardware;
receiving, in the software design tool, one or more bindings between software and hardware, wherein the one or more bindings form a set of bindings; and
storing the set of bindings for use in one or more software designs.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed toward a method for hierarchical hardware mapping in a software design environment. The method comprises the step of providing a software design tool on a graphical interface of a computer system. The method also includes receiving, in the software design tool, graphical representation of at least a portion of software and receiving, in the software design tool, graphical representation of at least a portion of hardware. The method may further include receiving, in the software design tool, one or more bindings between software and hardware, wherein the one or more bindings form a set of bindings, and storing the set of bindings for use in one or more software designs.
