Open SystemC Initiative TLM-2.0 in Action Video Tutorial

Posted by Ken Cheung in Events, Training on Tuesday, May 5, 2009

The Open SystemC Initiative (OSCI) is offering a free, online video tutorial titled “TLM-2.0 in Action: An Example-based Approach to Transaction-level Modeling and the New World of Model Interoperability.” The tutorial is divided into five presentations with a brief introduction and is approximately three hours long. It is available now.

The tutorial discusses TLM-2.0 concepts and mechanics, as well as some fine points of the standard that emerged during the development of the Language Reference Manual. The tutorial’s examples-based approach details TLM-2.0 and describes how to get the most value out of using the standard. The examples demonstrate modeling styles, as well as integration of legacy models based on TLM-1 interfaces, which are fully preserved in TLM-2.0.
