Standard cell libraries have been a mainstay of chip design for many decades since the inception of logic synthesis and composition methodologies. Cell library IP typically contains Verilog models ...

If designers can verify individual blocks before subsystem integration, the verification team can focus on complex ...

While simulation models of standard off-the-shelf memory components have taken leaps and bounds forward with respect to functionality and debug capabilities, embedded memory models have not changed ...

Register transfer level (RTL) verification remains the bottleneck in digital hardware design. Industry surveys show that functional verification accounts for 70 percent of the total design effort. Yet ...

This paper describes the process and tools used in the verification of a family of Secure Digital (SD) IP cores. The verification process described included SystemC verification, RTL simulation and ...

Amongst various pre-silicon solutions, Software Simulation Platforms have always been the preferred environment due to early availability, ease of use, ease of access, lower cost as compared to FPGAs ...

In Chapter 1, verification is defined as the process of determining how accurately a computer program (“code”) correctly solves the equations of a mathematical model. This includes code verification ...

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has developed a model-based development (MBD) simulation technology that shortens verification times for automotive semiconductors by about ...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation of Hyper-X research vehicle airframe moving at Mach 7 with engine operating. SOURCE: NASA Dryden Flight Research. V&V and UQ are being pursued by NASA, ...
