SystemC Introduction for Modeling with TLM 2.0

This 4-day workshop introduces the student to the SystemC C++ class library and the TLM 2.0 modeling standard. It is intended for engineers who are new to SystemC or those who may be self-taught, with an interest in learning SystemC for modeling purposes. The student will learn how to write, compile, execute, and debug system and hardware descriptions with SystemC, and will receive thorough and in-depth coverage of the concepts of the Accellera/IEEE TLM 2.0 modeling standard. This course is mixed lecture and exercises, with an exercise for nearly every topic.
