 ```
 
+### Building on OSX
+
+- Install SystemC in /opt (as usual with ./configure --prefix=/opt/systemc; make; make install;).
+- Install the required python over macports:
+``` bash
+sudo port install python34
+```
+
+- Install the QtCreator via macports:
+``` bash
+sudo port install qt5-creator qt5
+```
+
+- Install the QWT manually to /opt/qwt, then do:
+``` bash
+cd /Library/Frameworks
+sudo ln -s /opt/qwt-6.1.2/lib/qwt.framework/ .
+```
+- The boost library must be installed manually, since the macports version is not compatible with DRAMSys:
+
+In your “user-config.jam”, put this:
+
+``` bash
+using clang : 11
+    : "/usr/bin/clang++"
+    : <cxxflags>"-std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++" <linkflags>"-stdlib=libc++""
+    ;
+
+```
+Then compile and install it:
+``` bash
+./b2 toolset=clang-11
+sudo ./b2 install
+``` 
+DRAMSys and Analyzer only runs if the following is configured in the project settings:
+```
+DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/boost/lib
+LIBQWT_HEADERS=/opt/local/include
+LIBQWT_HOME=/opt/local/lib
+PYTHON_HEADERS=/opt/local/include
+PYTHON_HOME=/opt/local/lib
+SYSTEMC_TARGET_ARCH=macosx64
+``` 
+For the trace analyzer the file /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/include/python3.4m/pyport.h has to be changed like this: https://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/44288/issue10910-workaround.txt
