This paper presents an RTOS-centric timed cosimulation with SystemC for embedded system design. In our cosimulation environment, a SystemC simulator and an RTOS kernel model are communicated and synchronized with each other. Our experiment using a JPEG decoder example demonstrates an improvement in cosimulation speed over traditional HDL-based cosimulation.
