Imperas is now a part of Synopsys

Improving RISC-V Processor Quality with Verification Standards and Advanced Methodologies

Breakfast Bytes

 

At the RISC-V Summit in December, there were presentations halfway between a keynote and a technical session. known as RISC-V Spotlights. These were presented to the entire group of attendees but were not blessed with the keynote title. Maybe this is like the way that when a physician in Britain becomes a surgeon, they drop the title "Dr." and go back to "Mr.". A spotlight is even better than a keynote. One spotlight was by Simon Davidmann of Imperas titled Improving RISC-V Processor Quality with Verification Standards and Advanced Verification Methodologies…

    OVP is widely used by our customers, who demanded the integration with CyberWorkBench. This integration significantly broadens CWB's HW/SW co-verification support. We were also very impressed with Imperas technical support helping us achieve this integration extremely quickly and efficiently.

    We have seen that virtual platform based methodology can accelerate IoT product development. Imperas OVP models combined with the Imperas embedded software tools, supported by Coontec’s experienced staff, is a great solution for the Korean market.
