Recenzii

From the reviews:
"I was very pleasantly surprised when I … curled up with a book titled Hardware Verification with C++ … . Published by Springer, this … is a gem. … the authors wrote with an easy-going style that makes the book a pleasure to read. ... Very few people can write a good book. Mike and Robert are firmly established in this … category. … I learned more about verifying hardware using C ++ … with this book than I have in the last few years!" (Clive Maxfield, Programmable Logic Design Line, February, 2007)

Notă biografică

Mike Mintz has more than 20 years of software development experience. Five years ago, he switched back to hardware verification. He has managed groups of software developers and has more than 15 years of C++ programming experience. He implemented C++ verification systems at several companies, using C++, as well languages such as SystemVerilog, Vera and ‘e’.
Robert Ekendahl has a background in ASIC design and more then 12 years experience as a senior verification engineer. Has developed verification system and served as project manager for fortune 100 companies and start-ups with a focus on telecommunication. Has worked in C++ as well as languages such as Verilog, VHDL, C, Vera and ‘e’.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Written by two verification engineers, Hardware Verification with C++: A Practitioner’s Handbook is a four-part tour of how to perform object-oriented techniques.
Part I makes the case for C++, and shows a standard verification system using object-oriented programming (OOP).
Part II presents two open-source C++ libraries that enable efficient verification with C++ -- Teal, a C++ to Verilog interface, and Truss, a standard verification framework.
Part III focuses on OOP with examples from real verification projects.
Part IV puts it all together showing complete block-level and system-level verification systems.
"The handbook provides a clear understanding of object-oriented programming, and how it applies to hardware verification. It is clear to me that C++, together with Teal and Truss, could form a strong platform for the next generation of hardware verification."
Dr. Stanley Hyduke, CEO of Aldec, Inc.
"With this book I feel confident I can constitute a verification team that could make good use of C++ for verification, with all the positive results I would need for success. That is a breakthrough!"
Bob Fredieu, VP of Research and Development and Cofounder, Assertive Design
"Teal let us hit the ground running and focus on developing our intellectual property instead of simulation infrastructure. After two successful ASIC projects, we couldn’t be happier with its quality, completeness and compactness."
Bennet Ih, ASIC Verification Lead, SigmaTel Imaging Systems Group
"Hardware verification complexity has grown to be a software effort, requiring advanced techniques such as OOP. With clear techniques and examples, this handbook guides the reader through the complexities of using OOP to create testbenches. Regardless of what language you use, this book will help sharpen your skills."
Chris Spear, Verification Consultant, Synopsys, Inc., Author of SystemVerilog forVerification

Caracteristici

Describes a small verification library with a concentration on user adaptability such as re-useable components, portable Intellectual Property, and co-verification Takes a realistic view of reuseability and distills lessons learned to a tool box of techniques and guidelines Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
