This book focuses on the practical uses of the language for modeling real systems. The wealth of examples and downloadable code methodically guide the reader through the finer points of the SystemC language. This new edition places more emphasis on TLM 2.0 and IEEE 1666. In addition this edition includes a chapter on the SystemC Verification Library as well as an appendix that includes a C++ primer for SystemC. This book will show you: A step-by-step build-up of syntax; NEW features of SystemC 2.1; Code examples for each concept; Many resource references; Coding styles and guidelines; Over 52 downloadable code examples (over 8,000 lines); Exercises throughout the book; How SystemC fits into the system design methodology; Why features are as they are. Well known consultants in the EDA industry, both David Black, Jack Donovan and the new coauthors have been involved in the adoption and teaching of new technologies and methodologies for many years. |

Publisher Description: SystemC provides a robust set of extensions to the C++ language that enables rapid development of complex models of hardware and software systems. The authors focus on practical use of the language for modeling real systems, showing:
This new edition of an industry best seller is updated to reflect the standardization of SystemC as IEEE 1666 and other improvements that reflect feedback from readers of the first edition. The wide ranging feedback also include suggestions from editors of the Japanese and Korean language translations, professors and students, and computer engineers from a broad industrial and geographical spectrum, all who have successfully used the first edition. New chapters have been added on the SystemC Verification Library and the Transaction Level Modeling, and proposed changes to the current SystemC standard. David Black and Jack Donovan, well known consultants in the EDA industry, have teamed with Bill Bunton and Anna Keist, experienced SystemC modeling engineers, to write the second edition of this highly popular classic. As a team the authors bring over 100 years of ASIC and system design experience together to make a very readable introduction to SystemC. |
