+Intel® Compiler for SystemC* (ICSC) translates synthesizable SystemC design into equivalent SystemVerilog code.
 
 ICSC checks a SystemC design for common coding mistakes and generates human-readable SystemVerilog code. The tool supports SystemC synthesizable subset in method and thread processes, and arbitrary C++ code in module constructors. ICSC is based on Clang/LLVM 18.1.8 and includes SystemC 3.0.0.
