A computing device with an embedded microprocessor or micro-controller, including a software stack which comprises a content manager, and a runtime environment positioned in the stack above or together with a hardware abstraction layer. The content manager is not specific to any one design of runtime environment or hardware abstraction layer, so that several different designs of runtime environment and / or hardware abstraction layer can each operate with the same content manager. This de-couples the content manager from the runtime environment and / or hardware abstraction layer (e.g. a Java Virtual machine; elements of the operating system). The core advantage is that a single content manager can be used across multiple runtime environments and / or hardware abstraction layers; runtime environments and OSs can therefore be swapped without needing to re-write the content manager.

Transaction-based hardware abstraction involves a process of using heuristic techniques to identify finite-state machines (FSMs) in a hardware design that process transactions, from which transaction boundaries can be identified. Signals can be abstracted as a result of the transaction-based abstraction. Signals can be classified based on the abstracted design as either transient, temporary, or persistent. Transient signals can be identified during the abstraction process as the transaction-processing FSMs that define the transaction boundaries. In the unabstracted design, all combinational signals are temporary since they are set and used in the same time step and all transactions are at least one time step in length. State-holding signals may also be classified as temporary if, after abstraction, they become combinational in the abstracted design. All signals that remain as state-holding signals after abstraction are persistent. Transaction-based abstraction allows a comprehensive test plan to be automatically generated for a device. A test plan comprises a set of conditions called coverage points that are derived based on a signal classification created using transaction-based analysis to identify the architecturally-visible state of the design.
