EVE, Novas Complete Integration Between EVE's Hardware-Assisted Verification Platform, Novas Debug System; Optimized Tool Flow Streamlines SoC Debug with EVE's ZeBu
SAN JOSE, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—June 2, 2005—
Emulation and Verification Engineering (EVE) today
announced completion of a collaborative effort with Novas Software
Inc., the leader in debug systems for complex chip designs, that links
EVE's hardware-assisted verification platform with the Verdi(TM)
Automated Debug System from Novas.
Interoperability between the EVE and Novas product lines
streamlines design debug with a single, unified interface for the
development, verification and debug of system-on-chip (SoC) designs.
The result is an optimized verification flow between EVE's ZeBu -- for
Zero Bugs -- and Novas' Verdi that enables systems engineers and
hardware designers to quickly track and correct causes of errant
behavior before a design is fabricated. Additional integration efforts
between the two companies will be announced later in the year.
"Verification and debug continue to be the most time consuming
activities of a design project," remarks Lauro Rizzatti, vice
president of worldwide marketing and general manager of EVE-USA.
"Successfully integrating our ZeBu with Novas' debug capabilities
helps streamline this effort and provides dramatic improvement in
overall verification time and debug effectiveness."
"SoC design requires tighter interoperability between EDA
verification tools," adds George Bakewell, Novas' director of
Technical Marketing. "Integration of ZeBu with our Verdi system is a
major step forward in this direction with a complete verification and
debug environment that provides greater visibility into design
behavior."
