Introducing Smart Verification: Unleashing the Potential of AI Within Functional Verification
Conference - Jun 24, 2024 by Tom Fitzpatrick
In this session, you will learn that leveraging the power of AI and ML, Smart Verification revolutionizes functional verification by using faster engines that complement traditional heuristics with machine learning. Allowing engineers to be more productive with advanced creation, analysis, and debugging capabilities, while reducing workloads through predictive technologies that streamline and accelerate the verification process.

Accelerated Confidence in Interface Designs mixing Software Layers, Hardware Protocols, Physical Connections
Conference - Jun 24, 2024 by Gordon Allan
In this session, you will learn that today high performance compute fabrics are spread over multiple die, multiple packages, multiple cards and racks in the data center. They are linked together by layers of CPU-to-CPU, cache-to-cache, and network node-to-node infrastructure. Those connections are based on standardized protocols, always evolving and improving, and increasingly having both a hardware interaction of multiple layers, plus one or more software layers.

Portable Stimulus and Verification IP Fit Together Like a Hand in a Glove
Conference - Jun 24, 2024 by Tom Fitzpatrick
In this session, you will learn that the Portable Stimulus Standard (PSS) encourages verification engineers to focus on describing test scenarios, without worrying about the underlying target environment on which the test will ultimately be run. By describing the scenarios in terms of a randomizable schedule of actions, or behaviors that will execute, the test can easily be retargeted to different implementations for different environments.

Challenges of Developing IPs for AI Chips
Conference - Jun 24, 2024 by Tom Fitzpatrick
Tom Fitzpatrick interviews Rambus VP of Engineering Susheel Tadikonda about the high-level D&V challenges of developing IPs for the new breed of AI accelerator chips; including the need to support a high-degree of IP configurability, 3DIC-specific protocol requirements that call for new levels of security for data in-motion and at rest.

An Emulation Strategy for AI and ML Designs
Resource (Slides) - Jul 15, 2019 by Vijay Chobisa
The emergence of Artificial Intelligence is the “next big thing” in the overall economy and presents a unique opportunity for disruptive semiconductor development. End applications could range from ADAS, to 3D facial recognition, to voice and image processing, or to intelligent search. The ASICs for machine learning applications whether targeted for training or inference will have their own unique characteristics but will nevertheless present quite common and extreme verification challenges.

Using Automation to Close the Loop Between Functional Requirements and their Verification
Webinar - Aug 10, 2018 by Brian Craw
This session will define a “Verified by” relationship between the Verification Requirement and the Coverage Intent work item and the Verification Requirement and Test work item. The final pieces needed to close the loop is the proof that the coverage item was met in a passing simulation.

Data Mining for SoC Level Performance
Resource (Slides) - Jul 26, 2018 by Mark Olen
This session describes how to use data mining techniques to analysis SoC level performance metrics to find problems that escape even the best simulation and emulation processes - including SoC level bandwidth, latency, cache coherency, opcode execution performance, and more.

No One Expects Gate Level CDC Verification and Glitch Detection for ASIC Signoff!
Resource (Recording) - Jul 26, 2018 by Kurt Takara
In this session we will share a real world case study of how the customer applied Questa CDC at the RTL level, then Questa Signoff CDC for gate-level CDC and glitch detection to wring out 3 glitches among millions of signals. (One of the glitch sources found was one that they had suspected; but the other two were a complete surprise.)
