Benefits of using these standards together IP-XACT can be a single source specification for IP metadata - Specification is standardized and leads to : - Less ambiguity - Higher quality because of SCR checks - Higher levels of automation through generators - High levels of interoperability UVM provides advanced verification capabilities. - High level of HW/SW verification capability using the built-in UVM test sequences - Randomization, phasing, coverage, scoreboard If we can leverage the two standard s we can get significant levels of verification automation and productivity - Does IP-XACT link well with UVM? - Focus : Let’s investigate HW/SW interface verification
