This book covers state-of-the art techniques for high-level modeling and validation of
complex hardware/software systems, including those with multicore architectures. Readers …

SystemC transaction-level modeling (TLM) is widely used to enable early exploration for
both hardware and software designs. It can reduce the overall design and validation effort of …

Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) is promising for functional validation at an early stage of
System-on-Chip (SoC) design. However, raising the abstraction level brings a major …

As design abstraction has now got to its next upper level that is System Level, one of the
main challenges in this area is how to verify designs that are modeled at System Level. In …

Transaction-level modeling (TLM) has been proposed as the leading strategy to address the
always increasing complexity of digital systems. However, its introduction arouses a new …

The recent trend towards system-level design gives rise to new challenges for reusing
existing (RTL) intellectual properties (IPs) and their verification environment in (TLM). While …

Different fault injection techniques based on simulation have been proposed in the past for
functional verification of register transfer level (RTL) IP models. They allow designers to …

Simulation-based testing has been the workhorse of hardware implementation validation.
For processors, tandem simulation improves test and debug efficiency by cross-level …

Transaction-level modeling is an emerging design practice for overcoming increasing
design complexity. This article proposes a methodology for verifying the correctness of RTL …

SystemC is widely used for modeling and simulation in hardware/software co-design.
However, the co-verification techniques used for SystemC designs are mostly ad-hoc and …
