Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems and Mentor Graphics, this extended format Solutions Workshop from Doulos presents a practical getting started guide to OVM. An in-depth tutorial, it shows you how to get productive with OVM right now.
Building on and extending the basic knowledge gained from the OVM Introduction Workshop running throughout the week, The Doulos Solutions Workshop ensures engineers gain a broad and useful technical insight into OVM adoption.
In addition to presenting a detailed technical view of OVM, Doulos will present its own experiences in deploying OVM in the form of practical tips, coding tricks and gotchas. Also included is a roadmap to adoption for verification groups migrating to OVM from different scenarios.

OSCI TLM2 in 2008: A Leap Forward for Transaction-Level Modeling Standards
Tuesday 11th March, 14:30
Presenters:
Transaction level modeling (TLM) continues to grow in importance for architectural exploration, performance analysis, building virtual platforms for software development, and functional verification. The December 2007 release of the TLM2.0-Draft-2 standard from the OSCI TLM Working Group marks the culmination of several years of intensive work, and is a significant step toward making interoperable transaction level modeling a reality.
This tutorial will present the details of the latest OSCI TLM2 standard. TLM2 explicitly addresses the interoperability of memory-mapped bus models at the transaction level, as well as providing a foundation and framework for the transaction level modeling of other protocols.
An introduction to the concepts and the intent of the new TLM2 standard, including a brief introduction to transaction level modeling in SystemC, and a review of how TLM2 fits with the OSCI TLM1 standard.
How the core TLM2 interfaces allow you to write models using the untimed, loosely-timed and approximately-timed coding styles, and how to build models that combine these approaches. How to exploit temporal decoupling at the loosely-timed level to maximize simulation speed, and how to take advantage of the new direct memory interface and debug transport interface.
How the TLM2 generic payload provides off-the-shelf support for creating abstract memory-mapped bus models, how it can be extended to model specific busses and protocols, and, most importantly, how the two kinds of model can interoperate. How the generic payload extension mechanism can be used to add further attributes to a transactions in a way that does not break interoperability and minimizes the cost of building protocol bridges.
