The ability to debug and analyze software defects efficiently is a key requirement in order to complete a software project successfully and on time. Especially when porting legacy software such as an operating system (OS) or migrating sequential code to multi-core platforms, powerful debugging tools and methods are indispensable. Virtual platforms enable a whole new world of software analysis and debugging solutions. This book gives a technical overview and practical examples on the usage of virtual platforms for debugging. It describes how virtual platforms can solve debugging problems where existing debugging targets (e.g. prototype board, final hardware) fail to deliver a solution. Coverage includes various software types (e.g. firmware, OS, middleware, applications), design tasks such as bring-up, porting, development and hardware architectures (e.g. single-core, AMP, SMP
