This paper presents AMVP - a SystemC based simulator for ARM multicore platforms designed as a tool for early SW development during platform bring-up. It uses a parallel SystemC simulation approach to counter the performance slowdown incurred when simulating multi-processor designs. AMVP is sufficiently detailed to support running and debugging unmodified SW images of popular benchmark applications and modern OS kernels like Linux.
