Using Data And AI More Effectively In EDA


Key Takeaways The data being produced by EDA tools tends to be for human consumption and has weak semantics. Agents are attempting to create actionable information from unstructured data. The Model Context Protocol may provide AI with access to better data. Semiconductor design generates a lot of data, but how much of that is useful or currently being used by AI tools?

The Evolution Of RISC-V Processor Verification: Open Standards And Verification IP


The OpenHW Group’s [1] Verification task group has been a pioneer in the development of methodologies and verification collateral for RISC-V processor verification. Since 2019 the members have worked together to develop CORE-V-VERIF: a UVM environment for the verification of RISC-V processor cores. Over this period of time the CORE-V-VERIF environment has evolved as new processor verification... » read more
