Need Help in Hardware & Software Design of a multiprocessor system

Hi all,

I'm want to design a multiprocessor system using SOPC Builder as follows:

sopc system components:

  • CPU1

  • CPU1_Timer

  • Shared_Memory

  • CPU2

  • CPU2_Timer

  • SYS_ID

  • JTAG_UART

  • MSG_BUFFER_MUTEX

  • MSG_BUFFER_RAM

also,

In Nios II IDE, CPU1 & CPU2 run different applications but there should be some kind of PIPE mechanism(IPC) as explained below:

cpu1: Runs addition operation written in C (e.g. 2+3 = c, where c = 5)

cpu2: Runs multiplication operation written in C (e.g. c*6 = 30, where c = 5 retrieved from CPU1)

How can I build such system shown above?

Is there any reference design available for generating such systems?

Please help.

Thanks,

Samrat
