The new Portable Stimulus Standard being worked on in Accellera promises to provide the next leap in verification productivity needed to support our ever-growing SoC verification challenges. Portable Stimulus addresses these challenges by providing a single specification of test intent and coverage at a higher level of abstraction, allowing tools to generate target-specific implementations of the test for the desired platform(s) and freeing up the verification team to focus on what should be tested instead of wasting time and effort recreating the same tests in different languages and formats throughout a project. This session will provide an overview of the upcoming Standard and clarify the expected use models for this exciting technology. We’ll also share some details about the current capabilities of Mentor’s portable stimulus solution, Questa® inFact, and what you can expect from Questa inFact once the standard is officially released.
