OSCI Celebrates 10-Year Anniversary

In 1999, 35 EDA companies formed a coalition to create an "open-source C++ 'modeling platform'" to allow hardware, software and systems design that set the stage for a new era in electronics design. Ten years later, they have realized their goal and more -- with the approval of IEEE Std. 1666-2005(tm), "Standard for SystemC," and the release of the transaction-level modeling standard, TLM-2.0 as well as other advancements made by OSCI's technical working groups. The industry has joined together to applaud OSCI and several quotes from technical leaders are featured in a press release celebrating OSCI's decade of technical leadership. We invite you read what the industry has to say and share your thoughts on OSCI and SystemC in one of our industry forums. We look forward to another 10 years of service!
