Wind River Simics

When exploring system configurations with Wind River® Simics, you're limited only by your imagination. Without the need to purchase and solder parts, apply power, and connect everything together, you'll pinpoint your ideal configuration in days instead of weeks. And, your software team can begin working sooner with early prototypes, providing feedback to the hardware team to iteratively mature the hardware configuration in parallel to software development.

Engineers can perform embedded system design, analyze what-if scenarios, and explore alternate architectures with Simics' capabilities, including the following:

• Migrating a function from software running on a CPU to an independent accelerator (e.g., ASIC, FPGA, CPLD)
• Investigating a change in the system configuration (e.g., two control units and four data processing units, or one control unit and eight data processing units)
• Verifying an application's correct operation after porting from a single-core platform to a multi-core platform
• And more
