  • Overview

    Design complexity continues to increase, which is contributing to new challenges in verification and debug. Fortunately, new solutions and methodologies (such as UVM) have emerged to address growing design complexity. Yet, even with the productivity gains that can be achieved with the adoption of UVM, newer debugging challenges specifically related to UVM need to be addressed.

    In this track, we examine common UVM debug issues, and provide a systematic set of recommendations to effectively address them.
