Description
Summary:We present a co-simulation framework which enables rapid elaboration, architectural exploration and verification of virtual platforms made up of SystemC and Simulink components. We exploit the benefits of Simulink's graphical environment and simulation engine to instantiate, parametrize and bind SystemC modules which reside inside single or multiple component servers. Any set of SystemC module implementations can be easily added into a component server controlled by Simulink through a set of well-defined interfaces and simulation synchronization schemes. The complexity of our approach is hidden by the automated framework that enables a designer to focus on the creation and verification of SystemC models and not on the intricate low-level aspects of the co-simulation between different simulation engines.
