Videos of SystemC Users and Industry Experts Free to Worldwide Electronic Design
Community
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
The Open SystemC Initiative (OSCI):
WHO: The Open SystemC Initiative (OSCI), an independent, non-profit organization
dedicated to supporting and advancing SystemC as an industry-standard language
for electronic system-level (ESL) design, announced videos of the technical
presentations from the 11th North American SystemC Users Group (NASCUG 11) are
now available free of charge to the worldwide electronic design community. To
register and view visit: www.systemc.org
WHAT/WHEN: User presentations from NASCUG 11 discuss virtual platforms for
transaction-level modeling (TLM), using SystemC for Analog/Mixed-Signal (AMS)
design, and high-speed router development in SystemC. An in-depth tutorial,
"Using TLM-2.0 Extensions for Bus Locking and Snooping," delves into the finer
pointsof the OSCI TLM-2.0 standard, and is a follow-on discussion to the
examples-based "TLM-2.0 in Action" video tutorial released earlier this year. In
addition, two overview presentations from OSCI on the current happenings of the
organization and its recently formed Configuration, Control and Inspection
Working Group (CCI WG) are presented.The CCI WG was formed earlier this year to
develop standards for system-level debug and analysis. All presentations are
available now.NASCUG 11 was co-located with the 2009 Design Automation
Conference (DAC).

WHERE: The technical presentations are available online and free of charge at
www.systemc.org.
WHY: SystemC continues to grow in importance for architectural exploration,
performance analysis, building virtual platforms for software development, and
functional verification. Presentations from user meetings like NASCUG 11
strengthen OSCI`s mission and its dedication to providing mechanisms that allow
collaboration and information exchange among members of the global ESL
community.
