Driven by the need to objectively measure the progress of their verification efforts and the contributions of different verification techniques, IC designers have adopted coverage as a metric. However ...

The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has moved from late night dorm debates into serious physics journals ...

The semiconductor industry has greatly simplified analysis by consolidating around a small number of models and abstractions, but that capability is breaking down both at the implementation level and ...

The attention the major test and measurement companies paid to comparison of simulation and measurement caught my attention at this year’s PCI-SIG (Peripheral Component Interface-Special Interest ...

Many aspects of semiconductor design and verification have an ever-growing “need for speed” that has outpaced the performance improvements available by running on CPUs. Electronic design automation ...
