CoWare announced the 2010.1 release of CoWare SPW products. The SPW 2010.1 release advances the LTE (Long Term Evolution) Wireless Reference Library and adds a complete Xilinx implementation flow that includes direct source translation technology from C Data Flow (CDF) into RTL. The CoWare SPW 2010.1 release is available immediately. With this release, CoWare has reverted back to the product’s original SPW name (previously Signal Processing Designer, SPD). The new Xilinx flow combines SPW hardware implementation technology for RTL generation with Xilinx’s highly-optimized IP components from its ISE flow into one, easy-to-use flow. SPW 2010.1 now also offers direct source translation technology which takes CDF models and translates them to RTL. Using the polymorphism in SPW, this technology allows the...

CoWare, Inc. has announced a major new release of its SystemC-based ConvergenSC SoC design tools to speed adoption of electronic system level (ESL) design methodologies by system designers and architects. The release combines new features that enable faster modeling and debug of IP models, platform subsystems, and SoC designs in SystemC, with an open environment that eases integration of internal tools and IP into the system-level flow. ConvergenSC now features a powerful SystemC integrated development and debug environment (IDE) based on Eclipse — the leading C++ development environment for embedded software — adding SystemC graphical debugging and a managed builds process to ConvergenSC\’s fast SystemC simulator and thread-aware debugging engine. Because Eclipse is open, users can easily integrate Eclipse plug-ins...
