Paradigm Works Releases Key Verification Productivity Software for the Open Verification Methodology
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ANDOVER, MA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/07/09 --
Paradigm Works, Inc., a world-class leader in
ASIC and FPGA development services and software, announced today that it
has made a key software contribution to the chip development community,
donating its advanced SystemVerilog FrameWorks? OVM Template Generator for
free use through the
Open Verification Methodology (OVM) World community website. Functional
verification engineers using the OVM for SystemVerilog can now use for free
Paradigm Works SystemVerilog FrameWorks? OVM Template Generator to reduce
their development time and effort in delivering chips to market.
The OVM Template Generator enables verification engineers to specify a
template for their SystemVerilog-based OVM project environments and create
derivative environments on demand. "Our approach makes it easier for
first-time OVM users to get started, thus significantly reducing the
development time for SystemVerilog OVM environments," said Jim Crocker,
Vice President, Engineering at Paradigm Works. "Verification teams at all
experience levels will find that the OVM Template Generator enables the
rapid implementation and adoption of the OVM methodology across team and
corporate boundaries."
Verification teams are now able to ramp up their SystemVerilog-based OVM
environments faster because the OVM Template Generator generates an
OVM-compliant environment based on command line user inputs that specify
which components are desired in the environment. With the tool relieving
verification engineers from having to make many of the OVM implementation
decisions, verification engineers are therefore liberated to apply more of
their development efforts toward their application-specific code.
The tool's auto-generated code is project-proven and high quality, as the
OVM Template Generator's predefined code templates are qualified against
the OVM compliance check list provided by Cadence Design Systems,
co-developer of the OVM. The auto-generated environment improves code
consistency and ease of reuse across projects. Development teams can
leverage the tool's templates to propagate coding guidelines and other
project standards.
"The strength of the OVM for reuse has made it the leading verification
methodology choice," said Adam Sherer, functional verification marketing
manager with Cadence. "With more than 7500 registered users on the OVM
World site, the OVM ecosystem is generating an unprecedented volume of
verification IP. Paradigm Works' OVM Template Generator conforms to the
Cadence OVM compliance suite and helps ensure the consistency needed for
plug-and-play VIP reuse."
