Panelist and paper presenter @ DesignCon 2008
Hamid, founder of Breker, a graph-based functional test case
synthesis startup, is a major figure in developing coverage-driven
verification technology. Hamid will participate in a panel and
also present a paper at DesignCon 2008.
-- Is Coverage the Best Metric for Verification Closure?
Monday, February 4, 4:45 pm - 6:00 pm (panel)
http://www.designcon.com/2008/conference/tec_panel_monday.html
-- Hope Is Not a (Verification) Strategy -- Coverage Model-Driven
Functional Scenario Generation, Tuesday, February 5, 10:15 am -
10:55 am (paper)
http://www.designcon.com/2008/conference/2_ta3.html
-- The company will be exhibiting at booth 925
Where:
DesignCon 2008
Santa Clara Convention Center
February 4 - 7, 2008
Why:
Coverage-driven verification -- what Gary Smith calls "intelligent
testbenches" -- is an undeniable hot topic for EDA in 2008. Breker
and its founder, Hamid have been instrumental in developing
technology and nurturing the movement for chip designers to adopt
coverage-driven verification. Hamid is a recognized expert in the
technology and has voiced startling and oftentimes controversial
opinions about the future of verification technology over the past
year.
In these two forums, and at the Breker booth, Hamid and his staff
will discuss trends, issues, challenges and problems in the
current functional verification space and propose new technology
approaches to accommodate chip designers' need for comprehensive
verification methodologies. Given the high editorial and industry
interest in coverage-driven verification, Hamid and Breker staff
members will surely articulate strong opinions about where the
technology needs to evolve to and what the new verification flow
must look like in the next 18 - 24 months.
About Breker
Breker Verification Systems is an EDA (electronic design
automation) company that is bridging the gap between verification
planning and the testbench using Graph-Based Functional Test
Synthesis. Breker has created a functional test synthesis tool
used to develop functional verification tests for complex designs.
This solution makes the process of understanding, defining and
analyzing complicated verification requirements easy and
systematic, using a visual graph-based verification plan. By
generating tests directly from the plan, the tool reduces
verification effort by 11-14x while guaranteeing 100% verification
plan coverage.
Privately held, Breker was founded in 2003 in Austin, TX. Its
corporate headquarters is at 8217 Edgemoor Place, Austin, Texas
