  • Method of creating a simulation model of a disk drive
    Publication number: 20060217950
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention pertain to a method of creating a simulation model of a disk drive. In one embodiment, a simulation language is used to code instructions for the simulation model of the disk drive. The instructions comply with a specification that describes logic of the disk drive. A simulation model of a host is enabled to interact with the simulation model of the disk drive. A schematic of the disk drive is not required for the purpose of enabling the simulation model of the host to interact with the simulation model of the disk drive.
    Type: Application

  • Apparatus that enables a simulation model of a host to interact with a simulation model of a disk drive
    Publication number: 20060217951
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention pertain to an apparatus that enables a simulation model of a host to interact with a simulation model of a disk drive. In one embodiment, an instruction receiver receives instructions for the simulation model of the disk drive. The instructions are coded with a simulation language and the instructions comply with a specification that describes logic of the disk drive. The simulation model of the disk drive enables the simulation model of the host to interact with the simulation model of the disk drive. A schematic of the disk drive is not required for the purpose of enabling the simulation model of the host to interact with the simulation model of the disk drive.
