Virtual prototypes (VPs) are crucial in today's design flow. VPs are predominantly created in
SystemC transaction-level modeling (TLM) and are leveraged for early software …

Virtual Prototypes (VPs) play a very important role to cope with the rising complexity in the
design flow of embedded devices. A VP is essentially an executable abstract model of the …

Electronic System Level (ESL) design manages the enormous complexity of todays systems
by using abstract models. In this context Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) is state-of-the-art …

SystemC is becoming a de-facto standard for the development of embedded systems.
Verification of SystemC designs is critical since it can prevent error propagation down to the …

Formal verification of high-level SystemC designs is an important and challenging problem.
One has to deal with the full complexity of C++ to extract a suitable formal model (front-end …

Formal verification of SystemC is challenging. Before dealing with symbolic inputs and the
concurrency semantics, a front-end is required to translate the design to a formal model. The …

SystemC is an increasingly used language for writing executable specifications of systems-
on-chip. The verification of SystemC, however, is a very difficult challenge. Simulation …

SystemC is a system-level modeling language that offers a wide range of features to
describe concurrent systems at different levels of abstraction. The SystemC standard permits …

SystemC is a de-facto standard for modeling system-level designs in the early design stage.
Verifying SystemC designs is critical in the design process since it can avoid error …

To meet today's time-to-market demands, catching bugs as early as possible during the
design of a system is essential. In electronic system level design where SystemC has …
