OpenDSE

Open Design Space Exploration Framework

OpenDSE is a design space exploration framework for embedded systems, written in Java. It follows the Y-chart approach where an application consisting of data-dependent tasks is mapped to an architecture consisting of resources. The project is open source at Sourceforge.

OpenDSE can either be downloaded from Sourceforge or via Maven. The source code repository is listed below in the documentation listing.

• The standalone Java application can be downloaded from Sourceforge.
• The separate modules are available at Maven: See http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.sf.opendse.

The documentation of the framework is based on a tutorial, javadocs, and source code. Learn how to use OpenDSE from the following links:

• A tutorial shows the basic model, XML and optimization.
• The javadocs give an overview of the structure of the framework and its elements.
• The source code is available at http://hg.code.sf.net/p/opendse/code. Use Mercurial (http://hginit.com/) to clone the source code.
• The optimization part relies on the Opt4J Framework.
