New manufacturing technologies have made possible the integration of entire systems on a single chip. This new design paradigm, termed system-on-chip (SOC), tog
This book covers state-of-the art techniques for high-level modeling and validation of complex hardware/software systems, including those with multicore archite
Historically, the terms validation and verification have been very loosely defined in the system engineering world, with predictable confusion. Few hardware or
