An ever increasing demand for execution speed and communication bandwidth has made the multi-processor SoCs a common design trend in today’s computation and communication architectures. Design and ...

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Adding a proverbial tiara to its Miss Univers line of hardware/software co-verification tools, Adveda Inc. is introducing this week a model generator simulation add-on that places a ...

In this paper, we present a fast method which allows connecting together SystemC modules. These modules may be specified at different abstraction levels, and we obtain an executable simulation model ...

With the advent of System-on-Chip technology, designs are becoming bigger in size and thus highly complex, time-to-market is becoming critical, and at the same time, RTL methodologies are generally ...

Power consumption is often more important than performance in today’s SoC designs because of battery size and power dissipation limitations. The dilemma is that the most leverage available to optimize ...

If you start thinking “outside the box,” you’ll realize that SystemC is actually an ideal platform to model almost any real-life system or organism. SystemC came about because of the need to model ...

Sometimes design abstraction is a help, and sometimes it's a hindrance. Verification of system-on-a-chip designs with SystemC has a demonstrated ability to significantly speed up simulation runs.
