Abstract :
MVPSIM allows highly integrated system level simulations of complex, high-speed multimedia systems. It also aids multimedia software development by providing a uniform working environment to hardware architects and algorithm developers. MediaStation 5000 designers used MVPSIM to compare different architectures, testing and refining their design with various system level scenarios. MVPSIM can detect system modeling and design errors and provide accurate performance estimates of multimedia systems under development.
