    2 Welcome to SoCLib's development Trac

    4 [[PageOutline]]
     8= Goals =
    59
    6 = A) SoCLib Library =
     10 * Build an open platform for modeling and simulation of multi-processors system on chip, that can be used by both universities and industrial companies.
     11 * The core of the platform is a library of simulation models for virtual components (IP cores), with a guaranteed path to silicon.
     12 * Create the largest possible cooperation project at European level, in order to share the development costs.
    713
    8  * [wiki:Component SoCLib Components General Index] : contains documentation about the hardware components (IP cores) available in the SoCLib library.
    9  * [wiki:AddComponent Adding new components to the library] : the rules to follow to add a new IP core to the library.
     14= Technical features =
    1015
    11 = B) SoCLib Tools =
     16The main concern is true interoperability between the SoCLib IP cores :
     17 * All simulation models written in SystemC
     18 * Two well defined abstraction levels have been defined :
     19   * CABA (Cycle Accurate / Bit Accurate)
     20   * TLM-T (Transaction Level Modeling with Time)
     21 * All SoCLib components respect the VCI communication protocol.
    1222
    13  * [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/dsx DSX] : Design Space Exploration tool
    14  * [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/systemcass SystemCASS] : Fast SystemC simulation kernel
    15  * [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/socview SoCView] : Simulation kernel for debug and instrumentation
    16  * [https://www-asim.lip6.fr/trac/mutekh Mutek] : OS kernel for embedded MPSoCs
     23= Principles =
    1724
    18 = C) SoCLib Documentation =
     25=== Openness ===
    1926
    20 == Installation, usage ==
     27All simulation models are distributed as open source and available to all academic institutions and industrial company
    2128
    22  * [wiki:InstallationNotes Installation Notes] : how to install the SoCLib platform on your computer
    23  * SoclibCc is the current build system for SoCLib platforms
     29=== Path to silicon ===
    2430
    25 == Writing and design guides ==
     31A synthesizable RTL model must exist for each SoCLib component, in order to guarantee a path to silicon for any system designed with the SoCLib library.
    2632
    27  * [wiki:WritingRules/General General SoCLib Rules] : general rules regarding the SoCLib components.
    28  * [wiki:WritingRules/Caba CABA Writing Rules] : rules to write CABA simulation models.
    29  * [wiki:WritingRules/Tlmt TLM-T Writing Rules] : rules to write TLM-T simulation models.
    30  * [wiki:WritingRules/RISC Processor Modeling] : a general method to write generic processor models.
     33=== Business model ===
    3134
    32 == Miscelaneous ==
     35The RTL synthesizable models are NOT part of the SoCLib library, in order to preserve the IP providers business.
    3336
    34  * [wiki:WritingRules/TLMT Critères Pour Plate-Forme TLM-T] : criteria defined for writing TLM-T simulation models.
    35  * [attachment:SOCLIB_licences.pdf Comparaison licences LGPL & BSD]
    36  * [wiki:SoclibCc/DesignGuide SoclibCc/DesignGuide] is an attempt to justify the choices made in soclib-cc
     37=== European scale ===
    3738
    38 = D) SoCLib project =
     39The SoCLib project was launched and is supported by the French CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique), but is now part of the EUROSOC network.
    3940
    40  * Here are the [wiki:Models Models of documents to be used]
    41  * Here are the [wiki:Compte-Rendus Minutes of the SoCLib meetings]
    42  * Here is the archive of the development mailing-list  : http://www.soclib.fr/wws
    43  * You may follow contractual roadmaps on the [anr:WikiStart ANR/SoCLib project's Trac].
     41= Partners =
