Verifying that a multi-million gate ASIC will function according to its specification prior to being built into a system composed of hundreds or thousands of additional ASICs plus thousands of other ...

“Hardware development relies on simulations, particularly cycle-accurate RTL (Register Transfer Level) simulations, which consume significant time. As single-processor performance grows only slowly, ...

A technical paper titled “Manticore: Hardware-Accelerated RTL Simulation with Static Bulk-Synchronous Parallelism” was published by researchers at EPFL, University of Tokyo, Sharif University, and ...

As total system complexity grows, so does verification complexity. To speed simulation time and improve functional coverage of the RTL ASIC under test, the transactors used for RTL verification must ...
