It contains also N member variables '''p_irq[i]''', of type '''sc_in<bool>''', representing the interrupt ports. The number N of interrupt ports depends on the wrapped ISS, an is defined by the '''n_irq''' member variable of the '''iss''' object.

 The TLM-T modeling for a complete CPU (processor + cache) is presented in figure 3. 
-To increase the simulation speed, the TLM-T wrapper is the cache controler itself, and it is implemented as the class ''' !VciXcache'''. This class contains the SC_THREAD '''execLoop()''' implementing the PDES process, and the '''m_time''' member variable implementing the associated local clock. The class '''!VciXcache''' inherit the class '''!Tlmt::ModuleBase''', that is the basis for all TLM-T modules.

-The class ‘’’ !VciXcache’’’ contain a member variable p_vci, of type ‘’’!VciInitPort’’’, to send VCI command packets, and receive VCI response packets.
-This class contains also N member variables ‘’’p_irq[i]’’’, of type ‘’’ !IrqInPort’’’, representing the interrupt inputs. The number N of interrupt ports depends on the wrapped ISS, an is defined by the ‘’’n_irq’’’ member variable of the ‘’’iss’’’ object.
-
-The ‘’’execLoop()’’’ function contains an infinite loop. One iteration in this loop corresponds to one cycle for the local clock, or more in case of MISS, as the thread is suspended in case of MISS.

-The cache behavior is specifically described by the ‘’’cacheAccess()’’’ method, that is a member variable of the class ‘’’ !VciXcache’’’. This function is called in the main execution loop (i.e. at each cycle). This function has the following prototype :
