Abstract

This paper describes a top-down hierarchical simulationprocess that dramatically accelerates the design-evolution of DSPsystems when compared with traditional physical prototypingmethods. A summary of the model abstraction hierarchy and purposes for the various types of models provides critical guidance in selecting appropriate abstractions to achieve accurate yet efficient simulations. The simulations enable rapid exploration ofmany more alternative software and hardware solutions thanwould be practical using conventional gate-level simulation technologies. The result is improved design adaptations and quality.
