OSVVM and UVVM - VHDL Verification Methodology

Presenter: John Aynsley, Doulos CTO
Friday, May 11, 2018

Abstract:

Constrained Random Verification with UVM, the Universal Verification Methodology, is now firmly established as the workhorse for simulation-based verification, in the ASIC and SoC worlds at least. But UVM is built on top of SystemVerilog, which leaves you with a problem if you are a VHDL user looking to improve your verification. Should you stay with VHDL, or make the investment in skills and tools needed to move up to SystemVerilog and UVM?

In this webinar, we describe and explain OSVVM and UVVM, the Open Source VHDL Verification Methodology and the Universal VHDL Verification Methodology, which are free, open-source VHDL libraries. These methodologies allow VHDL users to start taking advantage of constrained random verification techniques without moving from their native VHDL language and simulator.

We also show examples of using dedicated features of  Aldec's Riviera-PRO™ simulator to display coverage information from OSVVM.

Doulos CTO, John Aynsley, will present this training webinar, which will consist of a one-hour session (see below for details) and will be interactive with Q&A participation from delegates. 

Attendance is free of charge.
