Simulating a Network: An Approach for Connecting Multiple SystemC Simulations
—Nowadays, sensor networks are widely used. To create new hardware for these networks, simulations are used. These simulations help during the design of the sensor nodes by providing information about internal states, power usage, and expected lifetime. They are useful to design one piece of hardware, however they are cumbersome when multiple of such hardware simulation instances need to interact with each other. This paper explores the possibility of starting multiple instances of a hardware simulation and connecting these via a simulation of the environment they will be used in.
