Functional verification is widely acknowledged as a major bottleneck in microprocessor design. While early work on specification driven functional test program generation has prop...
This paper explores an application-specific customization technique for the data cache, one of the foremost area/power consuming and performance determining microarchitectural fea...
In order to model telecommunications services as mobile agent system, we are defining a methodology based on the RM-ODP standards. Our approach makes the distinction between the se...
Abstract. Many modern systems are designed as a set of interconnected reactive subsystems. The subsystem verification task is to verify an implementation of the subsystem against t...
We address the problem of verifying the correctness of pre-silicon models of a microprocessor. We touch on the latest advances in this area by considering two different aspects of...
