SystemC 2.1, now known as IEEE Std.P1666, provides a definitive description and a precise and complete specification of the SystemC language. Implementations can now be confidently developed with reference to the SystemC standard with a common framework for collaboration.
As part of Celoxica's program to improve integration of SystemC simulation and verification with synthesis, designers can now build simulations directly from the Agility Compiler GUI. From the same source code files designers can verify their SystemC designs against the OSCI reference model in a single environment.
"Fundamental to the adoption of SystemC by our customers is standards compliance, ease-of-use and superior QoR targeting custom hardware and high density programmable logic," said Jeff Jussel, vice-president of worldwide marketing for Celoxica. "With the latest release of Agility we have demonstrated our commitment and currency with SystemC and strengthened its capabilities for prototyping, verification and production."
Improved code management and ease-of-use is supported through RAM inferencing and enhanced SystemC datatypes that also allow for better quality of results from less code. Comprehensive feedback is provided to the developer though enhanced design reporting and synthesis analysis. Agility's Control and Dataflow Graph (CDFG) viewer allows the designer to accurately view, analyze and understand high-level designs, linking source code through to synthesis results and interactively browsing a graphical representation of the design.
