摘要:
Hardware logic for generating breakpoint signals based on state changes in observed (“tagged”) hardware resource of a design under test is automatically generated and added to the simulation model of the design under test. These breakpoints halt simulation when a user programmable event, such as an assertion, test-case failure, or trigger occurs. Allowing the end-user to define the register values used in comparison to or timing of tagged resources, results in breakpoints that can be created, changed, enabled, or disabled without rebuilding the simulation model. Because the breakpoint logic is in-circuit, it takes full advantage of the acceleration made possible by hardware simulators, while providing an interactive environment for both functional hardware verification and software development on the simulated hardware mode.
摘要:
A system and method for test generation for system level verification using parallel algorithms are provided. The present invention generates test patterns for system level tests by exploiting the scalability of parallel algorithms while allowing for data set coloring and expected result checking. Based on the characteristics of the system being tested an iterative parallel algorithm is selected from a plurality of possible parallel algorithms. The selected parallel algorithm is then separated into separate program statements for execution by a plurality of processors. A serial version of the selected algorithm is executed to generate a set of expected results. The devised parallel version of the selected algorithm is then run to generate a set of test result data which is compared to the set of expected results. If the two sets of data match, it is determined that the system is operating correctly.
摘要:
A processing system for retrieving interrelated documents is described. The system comprises a document repository for storing a plurality of documents, a metadata repository for storing a plurality of metadata elements to represent relations between the documents, and a sociological analysis engine to identify relationships between the documents using the metadata elements from the metadata repository.
