Debugging and verifying system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs is taking an ever-larger portion of overall design cycles. A behavior-based debug system known as Verdi aims to minimize debug cycles by ...

Debugging the functionality of a design is a continuum: It starts at the architectural phase, continues through its logical and physical implementation, and does not stop after tapeout. Once the ...

Verification takes as much as 70% of an ASIC's development time and resources. With growing ASIC complexity, verification problems are growing exponentially. Given the high cost of ASIC mask sets, the ...

Debugging design violations found by design rule checking (DRC) has always taken a significant share of the time needed to get a design to tapeout. And debug time only increases as the number and ...

FREIBURG, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Concept Engineering, leaders in visualization and debugging technology for electronic circuits and systems, will unveil version 6.9 of the company's popular Vision ...

Adds Support for SystemVerilog Assertions, Flexible Probes, Waveform Generation With Combinational Signals SAN JOSE, CALIF. –– April 13, 2009 –– EVE , the leader in hardware/software ...

Debugging is pervasive in both computing education and more generally in problem-solving across many disciplines. "Debugging by Design" focuses on the development of debugging for engineering ...

Adding assertions early and throughout the ASIC design cycle is the best way to independently check that design code reflects the intended behavior as specified in design specifications and the ...

Real-time system designers and embedded software developers are veryfamiliar with the tools and techniques for designing, developing anddebugging standalone or loosely coupled embedded systems. UML ...

Debug has always been a painful and unavoidable part of semiconductor design and, despite many technological advances, it remains one of the dominant tasks in chip development. At one time, most bugs ...
