—Functional simulation is still the primary workhorse for verifying the functional correctness of hardware designs. Functional verification is necessarily incomplete because it i...
Functional simulation is the most widely used method for design verification. At various levels of abstraction, e.g., behavioral, register-transfer level and gate level, the design...
This paper describes a novel technique called Embedded Test-bench Control (ETC), extensively used in the verification of Tensilica’s latest configurable processor. Conventional ...
