SystemC Model

The MSP430 SystemC model has been fixed to work with code generated from a C compiler called IAR Embedded Workbench. A program can be written in C code, compiled, and translated into machine code that the SystemC model can read and execute. With this step completed, I was assigned some new tasks:

• Check that simple function calls compile and run on the model. In addition, check that add, subtract, multiply, loop, etc... work on the model.
• Create a document detailing the workflow required to go from C code to machine code to running on the MSP430 SystemC model.
• Learn more about SystemC signals (see SystemC user guide)
• Read two articles on Transaction Level Modeling
