"We have extensive experience helping diverse companies deploy SystemC," said Rob Hurley Hurley has become the English version of at least three distinct original Irish names: the Ó hUirthile, part of the Dál gCais tribal group, based in Clare and North Tipperary; the Ó Muirthile, based around Kilbritain in west Cork; and the OhIarlatha, from the district of , chief executive officer of Doulos. "And it's clear that those organizations who establish best practices across their teams from the start are the ones who achieve the greatest productivity gains. Atrenta's new 1Team:System solution, allied with our high-capability training and support, will give a head start to companies adopting SystemC." Atrenta teamed with Doulos because of Doulos's wealth of experience and deep understanding of SystemC, as authors of the SystemC Language Reference Manual. In addition, Doulos's expertise contributed to the design of Atrenta's 1Team:System solution. Doulos provided review guidance and feedback, resulting in enhanced ease of use and broader coverage of SystemC coding hazards. 1Team:System -- Most Advanced SystemC Analysis 1Team:System represents a new level of SystemC analysis, more advanced than previous SystemC approaches.
