ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an interface that can facilitate integration of user specific proprietary cores and commercially available cores during customization of an FPGA-based SoC. A selected hardware or software system component (380) used for customizing the FPGA-based SoC can be configured (382) using parameters that can be automatically propagated (384) and used to configure peer system components. During configuration (388) of the peer system components, other parameters used to configure those peer system components can also be propagated (400) and used to configure other system components during customization of the FPGA-based SoC.
