Developing embedded networked products using the Simics full-system simulator

This paper is an industrial case and tool study that describes the Simics full-system simulator and its network simulation facilities. It also gives a number of examples showing how full-system simulation of heterogeneous networked embedded systems is used in the development, debugging, and testing of networked embedded systems. Simics is a commercial product with many active customers in industry, and our experience from servicing these customers has had a great effect on the design of the tool.
