Subject: User Seeks A Detailed Comparison Of Synopsys SystemC vs. CynLib
Hi, John,
Our group has been evaluating SystemC and CynApps and we plan to embrace one
of them. For that, it is very important to get a comparison chart between
these two tools/languages which are built around the same concept.
Can anybody point me to some website or give me some pointers regarding why
one is better than the other? I am looking at criteria like:
* licensing mode
* generation of waveforms
* which is more popular and more used in industry and universities
* which has more 3rd party vendor and tool support
* simplicity of use, resemblance to Verilog
* do we have Verilog "to" and "from" translators
* most important, how is the PLI interface architected and how it works
Thank you for your help.
