Connecting Specman to UVM

UVM
1

Hello,
I want to connect the Specman enviroment with the UVM enviroment.

In my scenario I have an SPECMAN VIP but the Scoreboard , Coverage Model , Test-cases and Sequences I want to Write in UVM. So here i have VIP of APB bus which is written in SPECMAN but I want to run the test-cases using UVM environment and want to have a scoreboard and coverage model also in UVM.

SO can it be possible that using UVM enviroment we can drive the Sequences to the Specman VIP from out side and then again get the Data from the VIP (Specman ) and can have a scoreboarding and Covergae in the UVM again.

Please provide some guidelines for this scenario.

Thanks & Regards
Yashoda

This should be possible using the UVM-ML (multi language) package: http://forums.accellera.org/files/file/65-uvm-ml-open-architecture/

Hi Tudor,

First of all thanks for your reply.
Downloaded the package file and try to under-stand the flow. But i got confused with the examples which are present in the package.

Can you please explain with some simple example which shows that SV/UVM code is communicating with the specman code.

Thanks
Yashoda

Sorry, I’ve never used it myself. I just know it exists. Search for some posts on the Cadence functional verification blog. They have some tutorials up on how to use UVM-ML.
