Data Management: Is There Such a Thing as an Optimized Unified Coverage Database?

Thursday, October 20, 2011
By: Darron May / Mentor Graphics
Topic: Front-End — Sub-topic: Verification

Summary

With the sheer volumes of data that are produced from today’s verification environments there is a real need for solutions that deliver both the highest capacities along with the performance to enable the data to be accessed and analyzed in a timely manner. There is no one single coverage metric that can be used to measure functional verification completeness and today’s complex systems demand multiple verification methods. This means there is a requirement not only to unify different coverage metrics’ but also to unify data from multiple tools and verification engines. Data management forms the foundation of any verification environment.
