Название: ESL Design with SystemC Based Abstract Communications Продолжительность: 3 часа 30 минут
Аннотация: Over the past fifty years microelectronics design has evolved from transistor level to ESL (electronic system level). Design at the transistor level involves putting transistors together (processing elements) using simple wires (communications), where ESL design involves putting together complex cores and processing elements and interconnecting them using abstract communication channels. To cope with this evolving technology, new hardware description languages and abstract design methodologies have emerged. The object oriented C++ based SystemC language and its derivatives have become the language to use for this evolving technology. In this short-course we start with the necessary C++ object-oriented topics for proper description of digital systems. We will then present the IEEE Standard 1666 SystemC language for RT level description of hardware. For those who are already familiar with RTL, this part serves as an entry point into SystemC and the use of this standard at higher levels of abstraction. With this introduction to SystemC, we will then move into abstract communications and the use of SystemC TLM derivatives that are made for the purpose of describing abstract communications. This is a three and a half hour lecture with an approximately one-hour hands-on session covering SystemC.

Dr. Zainalabedin Navabi is a professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Tehran, and an adjunct professor at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Dr. Navabi is the author of several textbooks and computer based trainings on VHDL, Verilog and related tools and environments. Dr. Navabi’s involvement with hardware description languages begins in 1976, when he started the development of a register-transfer level simulator for one of the very first HDLs. In 1981 he completed the development of a synthesis tool that generated MOS layout from an RTL description. Since 1981, Dr. Navabi has been involved in the design, definition and implementation of Hardware Description Languages. He has written numerous papers on the application of HDLs in simulation, synthesis and test of digital systems. He started one of the first full HDL courses at Northeastern University in 1990. Since then he has conducted many short courses and tutorials on this subject in the United States, Europe and Asia. Since early 1990’s he has been involved in developing, producing, and broadcasting online and video lectures on HDLs, Digital System Test, and various aspects of automated design. In addition to being a professor, he is also a consultant to CAE companies. Dr. Navabi received his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Arizona in 1978 and 1981, and his B.S. from the University of Texas at Austin in 1975. He is a senior member of IEEE, a member of IEEE Computer Society, member of ASEE, and ACM.
