Arm Realview Drives Advanced SOC Projects Across Europe
ARM announced that Circuits-Multi-Projects (CMP) has licensed the ARM RealView CREATE family of Electronic System Level (ESL) tools to drive advanced SoC projects in universities and research laboratories across Europe, Turkey, Egypt and Israel. CMP already a distributor of RealView Developer tools in education will be able to provide university students with access to emerging SoC design technology, helping to put those students at the forefront of design research and methodology best-practices.
”This agreement will enable us to better educate university students on the most essential element of the SoC design flow,” said Bernard Courtois, Director of CMP.
.
“By extending its current ARM tools offerings with the entire range of our RealView CREATE family of ESL design tools, CMP is well-positioned to offer universities and research laboratories an end-to-end solution within the design flow,” said Thomas Kettler, business development manager, ESL Tools, ARM.
The RealView CREATE family of design tools uses ESL technology to create virtual prototypes of processor cores and complete SoC designs in the pre-silicon phase. As part of this process, SoC hardware architecture and software are tested extensively in the pre-silicon phase. The tools work at the cycle-based and transaction-based abstraction level, combining the speed of C/C++ with the accuracy of RTL, to provide a complete platform for modelling and programming multi-core SoCs. The tools also support the SPIRIT 1.1 standard for ease of integration into downstream RTL and implementation design flows.
