Imperas Software Ltd., the leader in high-performance software simulation and virtual platforms, today announced their participation at 3rd edacentrum Workshop on RISC-V Activities. An online virtual event featuring presentations on the latest developments from across the spectrum of RISC-V activities from academic research, commercial and ecosystem contributors.

 

‘RISC-V Models for Verification, Software Development and Architectural Exploration’

  • Speaker:         Larry Lapides – Imperas Software
  • When:             12:55 - 13:40 Session 4 Virtual Prototype (VP)

Abstract: As RISC-V processors start to be used more and more in SoCs, industry needs to look beyond the RISC-V ISA to the requirements for use. These include a well-verified implementation, the ability to develop, debug and test software, especially early in the project, and the need to explore different implementations, including different processors, multi-hart processors and custom instructions. One common element to these requirements is a high quality model of the RISC-V cores being used. This presentation will report on the test driven development methodology used to build the Open Virtual Platforms (OVP) models of RISC-V cores (~50 different cores available in the OVP Library and provided to processor IP developers), and show how these models have been used for design verification, software development and architectural exploration.
