De la contraportada

Virtual platforms are finding widespread use in both pre- and post-silicon computer software and system development, to enable software developers with a development platform months before actual silicon is available, and enable truly concurrent hardware/software design and bring-up. Virtual platforms increase productivity with unparalleled inspection, configuration, and injection capabilities, and form full-system simulations where computer systems can be tested together with their operating environment, allowing for a much more efficient system development workflow.

This book not only addresses how to use Simics and simulation to support very large software development organizations, but also how to use Simics and simulation to handle specialized tasks. Inside you ll find a comprehensive book about simulation best practice and design patterns, using Simics as its base along with real-life examples to get the most out of your Simics implementation. You ll learn about: Simics architecture, model-driven development, virtual platform modelling, networking, contiguous integration, debugging, simulator integration, workflow optimization, tool automation, and much more.
