Technical User Presentations Explore Virtual Platforms, Power Analysis, SoC Modeling and More
WHO: The Open SystemC Initiative (OSCI), an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and advancing SystemC™ as an industry-standard language for electronic system-level (ESL) design, announced the European SystemC User Group (ESCUG) will host its twentieth meeting Dec. 1, 2009 in Grenoble, France. For the first time, the meeting will be co-located with IP-ESC 2009, a technical conference focused on intellectual property (IP) based system-on-chip (SoC) design. Event registration as well as a full agenda for ESCUG is available at www.systemc.org.
