About SystemVerilog

SystemVerilog expands language-based electronic design with new and powerful design and verification capabilities, fully aligned with and built upon the Verilog-2005 standard, IEEE Std.1364™-2005. Its enhancements include the extension of memory system tasks for complex memory modeling, operator overloading for simplified expressions, and tagged unions with pattern matching for code conciseness and improved formal analysis. Assertion enhancements span environmental constraints to facilitate formal analysis and random simulation, and a broader scope of assertions for more comprehensive behavior and design intent specification. Testbench generation improvements encompass fine-grain process control for multi-threaded testbench development; dynamic and static queues with stream generation for complex verification scenarios; virtual interfaces for expressiveness of testbench infrastructure; and random weighted case plus functional coverage.

About Accellera

Accellera provides design standards for quick availability and use in the electronics industry. The organization and its members cooperatively deliver much-needed EDA standards that lower the cost of designing commercial IC and EDA products. As a result of Accellera's partnership with the IEEE, Accellera standards are provided to the IEEE standards body for formalization and ongoing change control.
