CoFluent Design - CoFluent Studio extends communication-oriented modeling and teamwork capabilities in new version 2.0

CoFluent Studio™ extends communication-oriented modeling and teamwork capabilities in new version shown at DATE
CoFluent Design adds to its system modeling and simulation toolset support for multiple instances in models and capacity for importing/exporting models from libraries

Defining multiple instances of functions and communications in application models
Designers use CoFluent Studio to model their system’s real-time application as a set of communicating concurrent hardware/software-independent processes called “functions”. Communication systems such as mobile terminals or networking equipments require the ability to model a large number of simultaneous communications (e.g. multiple terminals connected to a network of multiple bases stations). This is achieved by the capacity of modeling and simulating multiple instances of functions and their inter-function relations in CoFluent models. As the number of instances can be dynamically tuned at simulation time, it’s very easy for designers to analyze for example the quality of service of a network under different load scenarios.

Creating and reusing system-level model IPs
New or derivative projects start from capitalized experience and reuse many hardware and software components from past projects. However designers have no ways of capitalizing and reusing at the system level, in the project’s first 20% when 80% of technical decisions are taken.
During these first 20%, CoFluent Studio allows designers to go through timed-behavioral modeling and system architecting activities for taking the right decisions and preparing efficiently for implementation.
In addition, they can select reusable parts of their models and make them independent Intellectual Property (IP) blocks. Hence, a library of such IPs serves as knowledge repository for all system-level information: behavior, time properties, architecture, performances, cost, etc. Then, IPs can be reused in other models for creating easily and rapidly new system application and platform models and accelerate the architecture exploration and decision-taking process.
Furthermore, designers can control the visibility of their IPs as they can export and import them as either white boxes (as graphical components) or as black boxes (as compiled SystemC modules) for facilitating work with distributed teams and subcontractors.

CoFluent Studio V2.0 demonstrated at DATE 06
CoFluent Design will demonstrate the new CoFluent Studio features including multiple instances and import/export of model IPs on its booth # F40.

The CoFluent Studio toolset is already adopted and used by world-leading mobile phone manufacturers, telecommunication network equipment manufacturers and semiconductor providers.

CoFluent Studio V2.0 will be available soon for customer shipments.

About CoFluent Design

CoFluent Design provides CoFluent Studio, a system modeling and simulation software environment that allows developers of electronic systems to:
- DECIDE: Securely predict behavior and performances through system-level modeling & simulation from partial software and hardware
- SHARE: Provide system executable specifications rather than static documents for common HW/SW reference
- CAPITALIZE: Capture the company’s electronic system design know-how in model libraries
