Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new process definition (T-THREAD) and an extension to the existing SystemC simulation engine (SIM_API library) to capture the real time aspects of RTOS simulation models in an SLDL like SystemC. We describe the execution semantics of this process and show how it works in a complete embedded system simulation model.
