Design verification is one of the most challenging tasks in hardware development. With the ever increasing complexity of digital systems, validation and verification have become the primary bottleneck in circuit design, consuming up to 70% of the total effort in a project. Most of this time is spent on testbench creation and debugging. Complex digital system design is a process that spreads across multiple abstraction levels, using various software tools and languages.This dissertation addresses the validation and verification problem using a unified approach, which utilizes new mechanisms to bridge the gap between abstraction levels and provides a new simulation-based verification methodology. The goal is to reduce the time spent on verifi...
