The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) began work on a standard to define the Rosetta language, a specification language used to integrate design information in complex electronic systems.
The standard, IEEE P1699 - Standard for the Rosetta Systems Level Design Language will specify Rosetta syntax and semantics, libraries for abstract syntax tree (AST) definition and reflection and base modeling domains for all implementations.
The Rosetta language provides a system-level approach for developing, composing and analyzing specification models from multiple design domains, each with their own vocabulary and semantics.
Other design languages typically allow requirements to be specified for just one or two predefined domains.
IEEE P1699 will seek to foster wider adoption of the Rosetta language by electronic system architects and engineers, EDA tool vendors, design engineers and others in industry and academia. It is designed to allow architects to assess design trade-offs at the system level, mix specifications from multiple domains and predict emergent interactions among subsystems.
It also will let system engineers define design constraints as first-class models and support tool venders in providing analyses and integrating analysis results.
