Book by Chris Rowen

“Engineering the Complex SOC,” by Chris Rowen, CEO of Tensilica, and editor Steve Leibson, Tensilica’s Technology Evangelist, describes an emerging SOC design methodology that uses configurable, extensible processors as basic building blocks. This allows chip designers to finish larger projects in much less time, with higher quality results. The book uses real-world illustrations extensively, both in the form of case studies about architecture decisions and in short examples that communicate the flavor and the power of these methods.
