NASCUG Users Group Meeting

Call for Contributions


24 February 2009, San Jose, California
Co-located with DVCon 2009


The North American SystemC User’s Group (NASCUG) accelerates the use of SystemC for both new and established users by providing venues for users to contribute, learn, and interact. Following the great success of our previous meetings, we are calling for contributions to NASCUG X, to be co-located with the Design Verification Conference (DVCon) 2009 (dvcon.com), to be held 24 February 2009 in San Jose, CA USA.

A central component of the half-day user's group meeting is a number of 20-minute user experience presentations discussing techniques of design, modeling and verification using SystemC.

 

Topics (include but are not restricted to):

· Architectural Modeling with SystemC
