Celoxica Delivers Support for IEEE SystemC 2.1; Latest Release of Celoxica's Agility Compiler For SystemC Provides SystemC 2.1 Language Support, Comprehensive TLM Synthesis and Ease-Of-Use.


OXFORDSHIRE, United Kingdom -- Celoxica (LSE LSE - Language Sensitive Editor :CXA CxA Commissioning Authority (construction contracting)
CxA Compañía Por Acciones (Spanish: Shared Company)
CXA CartWheels Xtreme All-stars (Richmond, VA cheerleading program) 
) today announced the latest release of its Agility Compiler for SystemC synthesis supporting SystemC prototyping and verification. The new release can generate RTL (Register Transfer Level) A high-level hardware description language (HDL) for defining digital circuits. The circuits are described as a collection of registers, Boolean equations, control logic such as "if-then-else" statements as well as complex event sequences;  descriptions from transaction level models (TLM TLM Telemetry

) for popular ASIC/ SoC synthesis flows and gate-level EDIF EDIF - Electronic Design Interchange Format.

Not a programming language, but a format to simplify data transfer between CAD/CAE systems. LISP-like syntax. See also Berkeley EDIF200.

SystemC 2.1, now known as IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields.  Std.P1666, provides a definitive description and a precise and complete specification of the SystemC language. Implementations can now be confidently developed with reference to the SystemC standard with a common framework for collaboration.

As part of Celoxica's program to improve integration of SystemC simulation and verification with synthesis, designers can now build simulations directly from the Agility Compiler GUI. From the same source code files designers can verify their SystemC designs against the OSCI reference model in a single environment.

"Fundamental to the adoption of SystemC by our customers is standards compliance, ease-of-use and superior QoR targeting custom hardware and high density programmable logic," said Jeff Jussel, vice-president of worldwide marketing for Celoxica. "With the latest release of Agility we have demonstrated our commitment and currency with SystemC and strengthened its capabilities for prototyping, verification and production."

Improved code management and ease-of-use is supported through RAM inferencing and enhanced SystemC datatypes that also allow for better quality of results from less code. Comprehensive feedback is provided to the developer though enhanced design reporting and synthesis analysis. Agility's Control and Dataflow Graph (CDFG CDFG California Department of Fish and Game

) viewer allows the designer to accurately view, analyze and understand high-level designs, linking source code through to synthesis results and interactively browsing a graphical representation of the design.
