Abstract :
The paper proposes a technique to integrate and simulate a dynamic memory in a multiprocessor framework based on C/C++/SystemC. Using the host machine´s memory management capabilities, dynamic data processing is supported without compromising speed and accuracy of the simulation. A first prototype in a shared memory context is presented.
