New Demands For IP Reuse

Tech experts discuss the increasing importance of hardware/software verification due to custom designs and specific workloads in SoCs with AI/ML technology, putting pressure on tools and methodologies. Challenges arise in IP reuse across different subsystems, requiring a reevaluation of verification methods. The shift left approach, automation technologies like portable stimulus, and AI-based verification strategies are highlighted as crucial for addressing the growing complexity in system-level verification. The need for independent verification processes and tools to keep pace with evolving design complexities, such as chiplet economics, is emphasized.
