Abstract
For both combinational and sequential logic examples examined earlier, SystemC’s [1] event-driven simulation model was used implicitly. In combinational logic examples, we used the sensitivity list concept, while for sequential logic we used both sensitivity list and clocked thread (SC_CTHREAD). There is another way to use SystemC’s event-driven simulation model—by explicit use of SystemC events (sc_core::sc_event) with the library functions notify () and wait (). The wait() function may be used both implicitly or explicitly. Implicit SystemC events and their use are given in Table 7.1.
