The complexity of compute-intensive applications is driving the move to system design at the algorithmic level. With the release of the Catapult C synthesis tool, Mentor Graphics now offers the core ...

High-level synthesis (HLS) is a design flow in which design intent is described at a higher level of abstraction than RTL, such as in SystemC/C++ or MATLAB. HLS tools are expected to synthesize this ...

As System-on-Chip (SoC) designs grow ever larger, design and verification flows are changing. A rich mix of features, increased software content, high intellectual property (IP) use and submicron ...

With a new version 2.1 and its emphasis on transaction-level modeling, SystemC is finding its role as the glue that binds architectural analysis and the RTL implementation world. When the SystemC ...

If you have an RTL-SDR compatible radio there’s an excellent chance you’ve heard of the rtl_433 project, which lets you receive and decode signals from an ever-expanding list of supported devices in ...
