We introduce a novel method of test generation for microprocessors at the RTL using spectral methods. Test vectors are generated for RTL faults, which are the stuck-at faults on i...
Functional validation of microprocessors is growing in complexity in current and future microprocessors. Traditionally, the different components (or validation collaterals) used i...

Interrupt behaviors, especially the external ones, are difficult to verify in a microprocessor design project in that they involve both interacting hardware and software. This pap...
