Modeling Issues in SoCs is to use a high level abstraction level in design process and using appropriate tools together. Platform-based design requires methodology and flexibility to design quickly a SoC. This paper proposes a double profiling methodology based on Matlab, SystemC and Seamless. It uses a generic SoC platform to permit concurrent development and mechanisms to divide algorithm functionalities between designers. The proposed methodology is a progressive refinement based on IP components starting from Matlab algorithm to lower abstraction level. This new design flow has been applied for designing a multiprocessing environment.
