Abstract :
An extension of SystemC for mixed-multi level communication modeling and interface-based system design is proposed in this paper. SystemCSV provides a new design unit, the interface, which enables specification, design and verification of system communication separately from system functionality, thus introducing a new quality of system design into SystemC. The concepts and computational model of SystemCSV interfaces are presented together with a design example, the digital part of a wireless SmartCard transponder-reader/writer system
