摘要：A system on chip (SoC) designing cost is not only dependent on the manufacturing process but also on the used design methodologies and tools. Transaction level modelling (TLM) has emerged as an efficient methodology of electronic system level (ESL) design, with an acceptable simulation speed and modelling accuracy. During the last decade, the research efforts were to define the various TLM abstraction levels, TLM taxonomies, and TLM programming languages. The result was the definition and the standardization of the SystemC language, the TLM-2 library and a set of coding styles. The further step toward an efficient TL modelling methodology consists in structuring the various TL models. This paper firstly reviews the most important steps in the evolution of the TLM methodology and secondly it presents an efficient structuring of the TL models based on TLM-2 library.
