Abstract
A method of performing Electronic System Level simulation using a multi-core computing system comprises the steps of: A) Running a Discrete Event Simulation kernel on a core of the multi-core computing system, within a dedicated OS-kernel-level thread; B) Using the Discrete Event Simulation kernel for generating a plurality of OS-kernel-level threads, each associated to a respective core, and for distributing concurrent processes of the simulation among them; C) Carrying out parallel evaluation of the concurrent processes within the corresponding threads using respective cores; and then D) Using the Discrete Event Simulation kernel for processing event notifications, updating a simulation time and scheduling next processes to be evaluated; steps C) and D) being carried out iteratively until the end of the simulation. A computer program product including a hardware description Application Program Interface and a Discrete Event Simulation kernel adapted for carrying out such a method is also provided.
