Abstract

Modeling is an efficient way to improve SoC design efficiency. In this paper, a Model Driven Architecture (MDA) based approach is proposed to combine the capability of newly released Unified Modeling Language 2.0 (UML) with SystemC, extending UML to express SystemC concept while maintaining the mappings between them. This approach will consequently promote stepwise semiautomatic conversion from UML specification to executable SystemC code. We intend to build a smooth SoC design flow in which implementation can be derived from specification directly. The proposed design flow will make use of the graphical modeling capability of UML, and produce SystemC code for further analysis.
