Thanks for your reply.
I would appreciate if you can guide me to identify suitable starting point for changing Uboot for my current plateform (for example files or memory mapping related).
thanks again.

Yes, you can.
You need an excellent knowledge of your architecture and your hardware; you need a thouroughunderstanding of the required initialization procedure on your hardware (CPU, timers, interrupts, I/O, devices, ...), and standard low-level programming techniques (C, assembler, linker scripts).
Summary: expert level.
b) If I decide to modify ower own bootloader code ; can you help me to indentify what areas required fresh coding or chagnes in reference to
our
board ; i want just minimal bootloader.
No, we cannot. This is the U-Boot mailing list, and we're discussion U-Boot only.
