The OVM Class Library further enhances this productivity by providing a collection of base classes which provide necessary structure and functionality, like drivers, scoreboards, sequences, ...

Classes Below is an example SystemVerilog class used as a transaction from the AVM [1]. A SystemVerilog class is defined in the LRM, but has similar characteristics to C++ and Java classes. This class ...

(Continued from “Who is the EDA leader in SystemVerilog? Part 2”) Cooley’s survey, which seemingly addresses SystemVerilog usage ...

Intended as a unified language supporting both design and verification, SystemVerilog has, at least initially, taken off as a verification vehicle.

SystemVerilog was developed to provide an evolutionary path from VHDL and Verilog to support the complexities of SoC designs. It’s a bit of a hybrid—the language combines HDLs and a hardware ...

However, the SystemVerilog 2009 specification incorporates both languages, so modern Verilog is SystemVerilog and vice versa. While many new features are aimed at verification, there is something ...

The two questions I hear most often while doing presentations about SCE-MI transaction based emulation are, “Can we have coffee break?” and “Why do we need a thin C layer between two SystemVerilog ...
