The paper presents a virtual platform implemented in SystemC based on AMBA-bus standards. The platform has been implemented as a multi-core structure with all components required by typical electronic embedded systems. The structure allows flexible modeling and simulation of various applications composed of many cooperating components. Thanks to used high level abstract tools (SystemC) and modeling strategies (TLM), the projects implemented on this virtual platform could be efficiently verified and reused. The work presents results of some of designs simulated on the platform which could be used for design space exploration purposes.
