During this week, we had conversation with Brian Bailey about the current proposed SCE spec. We discussed that the functions can be separated into three categories:
1. Infrastructure
2. TB interface
3. Transactor macros
In its current form, the Infrastructure and TB interface calls seems to be OK. However the transactor macros seems to be implementation dependent and may not be transferrable to all emulators.
Thus Brian and Jason Andrews is looking at adding a section within the current document to partition the calls into these three areas and loosen the language that all calls have to be implemented in order to comply with this standard.
In addition, we would like to propose at the next committee meeting to split the standard into three sections as a long term goal and solicit additional funding from Accellera to achieve this goal.
Meanwhile we are working with Brian on a donation from Axis.
If you have any comments before our meeting next week, please send them to this alias or voice them at the committee meeting.
Thank you.
Shane Wang
