Simulating microprocessor systems using occam and a network of transputers

Gorton, Ian; Kerridge, Jon; Jervis, Barrie

Abstract

The simulation at component level of microprocessor systems provides a precise technique for evaluating the design of a system with regards to its requirements specification. The paper describes the use of occam to simulate individual microprocessor components, and presents a method of modelling the behaviour of microprocessor bus systems. The possibility of utilising transputers to provide real-time simulation is discussed.
