The Accellera Interfaces Technical Committee (ITC) seeks your help
extending high-performance verification capabilities to end-users
concerned with creating high-performance verification environments.
The Accellera Interfaces Technical Committee is a collection of EDA
vendors and customers committed to enabling high-performance
verification. The mission of the group is to identify and standardize
interfaces between HDL environments and verification environments that
enable complete, high performance verification systems to be
constructed. This team has recognized that hardware acceleration is an
essential component in system level verification, and that interface &
modeling standards are required to increase the usability of hardware
based verification solutions. In May of 2003, Accellera ratified
version 1.0 of the SCE-API. This API provides Verification Design
engineer a way to create verification IP and test-benches in a manner
that ports from simulation engines to hardware based platforms/engines.
Today multiple EDA vendors have implemented the SCE_API as part of their
product offering. Several others are considering adding SCE-API
support to their offerings. Today's ITC members include: (List all
members on the reflector).
The ITC committee is currently engaged in promoting the message of how
the SCE-API is being used today to create high-performance verification
environments, and soliciting both vendor and end-user feedback in order
to continue to enhance the current standard in terms of ease of use for
both the verification IP creator, and the HDL simulation user. We are
seeking new members to help us in this mission. We invite you to come
join us for our next face to face meeting following the November ICCAD
event in San Jose on November 14th, 2003.
