functional verification

More optimistic about the semiconductor industries prospects than for some time, Siemens Joe Sawicki identified key EDA challenges at DAC.

How can we refine our approach functional verification to deal with the increasing number of systems that leverage artificial intelligence.

The Portable Stimulus Standard helps overcome many of the verification challenges inherent in the strict requirements of ISO 26262.

Analysts say there is a $1B market on the horizon. We talk with Mentor's Jean-Marie Brunet about where such a number could come from.

Bus contention and floating busses are well defined issues and therefore excellent candidates for being addressed with early-stage formal verification.

This article shows practical ways to use verification IP for greater productivity with specific code examples from Mentor Graphics' Questa platform.

Research study suggests the maturity of your verification flow determines the likelihood of first-pass success far more than the complexity inherent in design size.

Combining assertion-based verification techniques with emulation makes for easier debug, better coverage and greater functional efficiency.

Lint is no longer just about checking RTL code. It already incorporates functional verification within a three-stage analysis. Time to look again at a 'familiar' technology.

Overcome the time and visibility limitations of simulation and of gate-level and RTL-based strategies to achieve full-chip analysis.
