Top 15 Integrating Points In The Continuum Of Verification Engines
By Frank Schirrmeister - 30 Jul, 2015 - Comments: 0

The integration game between the different verification engines, dynamic and static, is in full swing. Jim Hogan talked about the dynamic engines that he dubbed “COVE”, and I recently pointed out a very specific adoption of COVE in my review of some customer examples at DAC 2015 in “Use Model Versatility Is Key for Emulation Returns on Investment”.
