As new Internet applications appear continuously, network processors .. NPs .. are applied to various network equipments. In this paper, we adopt the system design methodology based on SystemC, and construct a platform to modeling network processor architecture. This platform is composed of an extensible heterogeneous resource library and an architecture constructor. Architecture constructor can automatically generate model instance from a configuration table provided by designers. The model can be refined and its performance can be evaluated easily. This modeling methodology can be used to construct various network processor architecture models quickly, and optimize network processor design.
