The article focuses on reusable intellectual property (IP) as the new abstraction in systems on chips (SOCs). It mentions the difference of the traditional design flow and the IP-centric flow. It cites the ideal assembly process beginning with system-level stimulation as IP selection verification process, the importance of rapid prototyping and the integrated circuit (IC) implementation all coming from once source. It also notes the advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA).
