Systemc

SystemC has received a wide acceptance by users and tool vendors as the next generation system description language in order to deal with higher levels of abstraction for complex SoC designs. This book offers a comprehensive survey on the state of the art of SystemC in industry and research. It is organized into 11 self-contained chapters wherein selected SystemC experts present their approaches in the domains of modelling, analysis and synthesis. Their contributions range from mixed signal and discrete systems to embedded software. The chapters give a broad overview of advances in SystemC methodologies and applications and are mainly based on presentations given at the European SystemC User Group meetings.
