Robustness and Usability in Modern Design Flows

Mehr zum Buch

The book addresses the challenges in designing and verifying increasingly complex integrated circuits. It analyzes current methodologies, identifies deficiencies, and proposes improvements in both design and verification processes. A comprehensive tool flow for Synthesis for Testability of SystemC descriptions is introduced, enabling fully testable circuits with efficient test pattern generation. Additionally, it presents a new paradigm for formal design verification, emphasizing design understanding and automated property generation, supported by empirical evaluations to enhance usability and robustness in design flows.
