Abstract
Recent proliferation of various system level design methodologies, languages, and frameworks propose many alternative ways to model, simulate, verify and realize complex computing systems. Currently, embedded systems are not only complex in functionality and large in size, but they also contain heterogeneous components interacting with each other. For example, a system-on-chip based embedded system may contain digital signal processing components to process streaming data, computational components to perform specific calculations, and micro-controllers to manage the interaction between these components, and analog-digital converters to interact with the environment. To cope with complexity and heterogeneity of such systems, a number of methodologies have been developed into system level design languages and frameworks for modeling and simulation, together with tools and design environments. Although each one of these system level design languages and frameworks offer attractive methodologies individually, we believe a successful methodology requires a few essential ingredients to be confluent in a single design framework. We illustrate our ideas that we consider essential ingredients through proof-of-concept extensions to SystemC. This talk will mainly provide an overview on heterogeneous extensions of SystemC and a directed test case generation approach for SystemC.
