This is the Xilinx Dual Processor Reference Designs suite. The designs illustrate a few differentdual-core architectures based on the MicroBlaze™ and PowerPC™ processors. The designsillustrate various concepts described in the Xilinx White Paper WP262 titled, “DesigningMultiprocessor Systems in Platform Studio”. There are simple software applications includedwith the reference designs that show various forms of interaction between the two processors.
