2007/2008 Seminar: "Ready for the Billion-Cycle Challenge?"
This seminar was co-sponsored by 
EVE had a successful worldwide tour presenting the "Billion Cycle Challenge", which was very well received from Europe to Asia and the Americas. Thank you again for attending.
This free half-day technical seminar covers the following topics:
| 8:45am - 9am |
Registration, Breakfast |
| 9am - 9:20am |
The Billion-Cycle Challenge: true HW/SW co-verification requires billion-cycle simulations to validate the newest SOCs |
| 9:20am - 9:45am |
The Billion-Cycle Methodology: using a multi-level approach combining software debug of embedded applications, signal-level hardware debug and transaction-level monitors |
| 9:45am - 10:15am |
A step-by-step guide on building system-level testbenches using virtual components that can sustain a design over billions of cycles and reach validation closure faster |
| 10:15am - 10:30am |
Break |
| 10:30am - 11am |
Guest speaker: experiences in overcoming the billion cycle challenge (speaker is different for each city) |
| 11am - 11:30am |
Live Demo: the Billion-Cycle Methodology in action. See the actual debug of a Linux boot sequence, when chasing HW/SW bugs in a peripheral device. Is it a software bug or a hardware bug? |
| 11:30am - 11:45am |
The latest ARM-based designs present new verification challenges. Learn about a co-emulation strategy that supports the latest processor advances. |
| 11:45am - 12:15pm |
Development of complex SoC requires comprehensive RTL verification, with easy connections to early virtual prototypes as well as emulation to facilitate continuous hardware/software validation.
Learn how the VMM methodology can enable a single transaction-level verification environment to be used during all stages of the RTL development process.
