Shift verification effort from a single, time-consuming flat run to a more efficient, distributed, and scalable process.

Growing design sizes, low power (LP) complexity and the need for early stage verification is making designers adopt hierarchical verification flows. Traditionally for hierarchical verification, ...

Hierarchical timing reuse reduces schedule-risk while using fewer compute resources Automated distribution of full-chip analysis runs on smaller, more readily available resources Dynamic top-down and ...

Hierarchical design methodologies that introduce concurrency into the design flow are the answer to burgeoning circuit complexity. Synopsys's Steve Kister discusses various challenges to design ...
