| Its NOT all about performance | Are we spending too much time focusing on cycle-per-second performance and not enough time ensuring we have best in class verification environments. |
| Your Verification Manager can cause harm than good. | Its not his fault, its an organizational issue. Your verification manager position may be eating into your profits. A message for Engineering Directors recently published in a major Engineering publication |
| Why is SystemC the Right Choice for Verification | Recent breakthroughs make open source tools (SystemC) the right decision. See my article published in a major engineering publication regarding my Broadcom experience. |
| There is a way to use 5X fewer HVL licences | What Cadence and Synopsys do NOT want you to hear. Taken from the the Verification Guild email forum. There is no need for a 1 to 1 HVL to RTL simulator license relationship. |
| pros and cons | Well said article, i.e. forget synthesis: from John Cooley's ESNUG post 414: |
| SystemC gaining ground | Another Pro- SystemC article, J. Cooley, June 23. 2003 |
| Pro SystemC DVCON report | Here is an interesting opinion from a DVCON 2003 Trip report taken from ESNUG 413: Read John Cooley's DVCON 2004 report Exerpt: "Verisity Design Inc - HVL touting their ability to work with any/all simulators (even SystemC). Wants to appear opensource, but in reality is proprietary." . |
| SystemC Modeling Fundamentals | A freely distributed white paper describing the Basics of SystemC (pdf). |
| SystemC functional spec (pdf) | Additional SystemC Documentation |
| SystemC users guide (pdf) | Additional SystemC Documentation |
| Using transaction-based verification in SystemC (pdf) | Additional SystemC Documentation |
| Verification_Audit.pdf | This paper won the "Best Paper" award at this years DVCon in February. Notice the "references" on the last page. --Shameless self promotion :). |
| scv_randomization.pdf | Great paper showing how to achieve Specman-like functionality in SystemC |
