ABSTRACT:
An apparatus performs event processing in a mixed-language simulator. The apparatus comprises logic for generating a list of actions to be performed for a given trigger event occurrence and for processing at least some of the listed actions in a source-code-to-HDL-interface domain before performing a context switch from the source-code-to-HDL-interface domain to a source code model domain. By listing actions to be performed for a given trigger event occurrence and then processing listed actions before switching contexts, the amount of context switching between the HDL model domain and the source code model domain that occurs during the simulation is reduced.
