Overview
The ability to create executable platforms across a range of abstraction levels is a key benefit of the xtUML process. Part of the Mentor Graphics BridgePoint portfolio is the SystemC Model Compiler. This presentation showcases the capabilities of this approach along with documenting the recipe for creating virtual platforms.
What You Will Learn
- What is a virtual platform?
- What is the recipe for creating a virtual platform component from an xtUML model?
- What options are available to customize the model?
- How is time introduced into the model?
- How are the models imported into Vista (by Mentor Graphics) and the final system created?
- How is performance data gathered and analyzed?
Who Should Attend
- Systems Engineers
- SW Engineers/SW Architects
- HW/Electrical Design Engineers
- Systems Designers
- Projects Managers for Systems Projects
