The Cadence® Incisive® Plan-to-Closure Methodology reduces risk in the verification of full chips and SoCs by providing a system of best practices and procedures that streamline the process and ensure system-level quality. It spans the full spectrum of verification needs, from automated executable plan creation, to assertion-based verification, to testbench automation and reuse, to full system verification.
The Plan-to-Closure Methodology steers verification based on optimized methods tested on real projects. It includes the following components:
- “Golden” executable examples that serve as learning aids and working templates
- Knowledge System, a web-based portal technology that includes documented best practices and reuse guidelines
- Libraries (code building blocks and utilities) that automate the process and eliminate many redundant verification coding tasks
Benefits
- Ensures verification quality with a comprehensive plan- and metric-driven approach
- Supports assertion-based verification, allowing engineers to start verification earlier by using and leveraging assertions at any level (formal analysis to simulation to acceleration/emulation)
- Boosts productivity through reuse of plug-and-play Verification IP, executable templates, and libraries of code building blocks
- Supports mixed-language IP reuse with the Universal Reuse Methodology, which handles e-only, SystemVerilog-only, or mixed-language verification components
- Automates and unifies planning and management, assertion-based verification, testbench automation and reuse, and full-system verification into one methodology
- Optimizes wireless and consumer SoC design via integration with the Cadence SoC Functional Verification Kit
- Supports incremental adoption according to user needs
