Abstract
A device is provided for accelerating, on a platform comprising a plurality of processing units, the execution of a SystemC simulation of a system, said simulation comprising a SystemC kernel and SystemC processes. The device comprises hardware means for scheduling the SystemC processes on the processing units in a dynamic manner during the execution of the simulation, these means making it possible notably to preempt the processing units.
