| Group Name | Group Description |
| Analog/Mixed-signal Working Group (AMSWG) | The AMS Working Group (AMS WG) is responsible for the standardization of the SystemC AMS extensions, defining and developing the language, methodology and class libraries for analog, mixed-signal and RF modeling in SystemC. |
| Latest News |
OSCI has released the AMS 1.0 Standard, the first modeling language targeting system-level design and verification to describe analog/mixed-signal behavior as natural extension to existing SystemC-based design methodologies. AMS 1.0 is available for download under open-source license and includes the requirements specifications, AMS language reference manual (LRM), and a user's guide. Read more in OSCI's recent press release.

| Past Events | |
The AMS WG organized the following public events in the past:
Interactive Session at DATE 2008: "Where Two Worlds Meet: SystemC AMS and TLM Interaction", March 11, 2008
Interaction of Analog/Mixed-Signal Systems and Transaction Level Modeling, 31st of January 2008, Vienna
Workshop on C/C++-Based Modelling of Embedded Mixed-Signal Systems, 25th and 26th of June 2007, Dresden |

| Configuration, Control & Inspection | This group is responsible for defining standards that facilitate the configuration, control and inspection of SystemC models.
The group is developing new standards that will allow the exchange of information between models and tools. The goal of these important standards is to improve efficiency and ROI for both model creators and tool providers. It will allow suppliers to instrument models so that a rich user experience is enabled, and for industry tools to leverage this instrumentation to provide powerful debug and analysis capabilities.
The WG is initially focusing on configuration standards and has drafted a requirements specification that is now available for public review. You may download the draft specification and submit comments via the CCI forum. The review period extends through April 2, 2010. Find out more in our recent press release.
Future areas being considered are visibility (internal state, power data, performance stats, etc.) with monitor/trace controls, model-specific command/control messaging, registers, and save/restore functionality.

| Language Working Group (LWG) | This group is responsible for the definition and development of the SystemC core language, the foundation on which all other SystemC libraries and functionality are built. Version 2.2 of the open source proof-of-concept SystemC library eliminates all known incompatibilities with the IEEE 1666-2005(tm) SystemC standard. With the final release of this version, the industry now has a fully ratified standard definition of the SystemC language and a freely-available implementation upon which commercial, open-source, and in-house tools can be based. |
| Synthesis Working Group (SWG) | This group is responsible for the definition of a synthesizable subset of SystemC. The Synthesis WG has recently released a synthesis subset draft to the public. The draft is available for download here. Public review of the draft is now closed. |
| Transaction-level Modeling Working Group (TLMWG) | This group is responsible for the definition and development of methodology and add-on libraries for transaction-level modeling in SystemC. The TLM-2.0 Reference Manual is now available for download along with release 2.0.1 of the TLM library. Read more about the release in OSCI's recent press release. The "TLM-2.0 in Action" video tutorial is now online. This three-hour tutorial is the culmination of five presentations given at the Design and Verification Conference (DVCon) 2009. |
| Verification Working Group (VWG) | This group is responsible for the definition and development of methodology and add-on libraries for verification in SystemC including the SCV library. The verification working group released SystemC Verification Library (SCV) V21.0p2, which is compatible with SystemC 2.2 as well as the earlier SystemC V2.1v1. |
