In today’s fast-paced world of hardware design and verification, accelerating time-to-market and optimizing resources are paramount. Hardware-Assisted Verification (HAV) significantly reduces verification time, allowing hardware design teams to meet tight deadlines and bring products to market faster. Moreover, HAV enables thorough testing of intricate designs, uncovering potential issues early in the development cycle and ensuring product reliability. While HAV represents a significant investment and offers numerous benefits, managing multiple projects, diverse teams, and varying job priorities on a shared HAV platform can be overwhelming. Enter the Veloce Enterprise Server (ES) App – a revolutionary solution developed by Siemens EDA to streamline Veloce hardware resource management and transform the HAV landscape.
Understanding Hardware-Assisted Verification
Hardware-Assisted Verification (HAV) uses dedicated hardware to accelerate the verification process of semiconductor designs. This approach allows for faster execution of test cases compared to traditional software-based simulations, significantly speeding up the verification cycle. HAV is particularly beneficial for large and complex designs, where traditional simulation methods fall short in terms of speed and capacity. For more information on Siemens EDA HAV, see the article, “Siemens delivers next-generation, comprehensive hardware-assisted verification system”.
However, managing the efficient use of HAV resources, especially when dealing with multiple projects and teams, poses significant challenges. This is where the Veloce ES App comes into play.
