How to Fill the Gap?
• Verification gap increase between the amount of desired verification and that of performed
– Due to design complexity and simulation performance
3
Diverse Verification Environments and Workflows
4
SOC Development &Verification Level
Verification Level (VL)

Proposed integrated platform and queue
• Proposed integrated platform and internal queue for automation and verification
– Diverse and well-structured verification environment in each design stage (IP, block, SOC level)
– Standardized workspace structures
– Support all environments in the proposed system rather than formalize them
• Step
– Each component of the Scenario
– Unit operations of users
• Automation
– To automate manual tasks for integrating each
verification environments
– To reduce human errors

Experimental Results (1/2)
• Experiment Condition
– w/ Flagship Mobile AP SOC
– # of regression : more than 10,000 (includes IP, Block, and SOC top scenarios)
• Comparison result of verification time
– A, B, C in Table 1 : verification time for each verification target (IP, block, SOC)
– T : unit time, A1 at the VL1 is defined as 4T
• Through additional research, plan to re-order the test list of error cases by clustering each block by
density-based clustering
