Hi
The Vera Open Source Initiative (VOSI) establishes an interoperable, open hardware language platform to accelerate innovation in the verification market, develop seamless tool integration and open distribution of verification IP. VOSI's goal is to establish a de-facto hardware verification language (HVL), called OpenVera™, for the benefit of the entire verification community including companies in the semiconductor, systems, IP, and EDA industries along with verification services.
OpenVera is an intuitive easy to learn language that combines the familiarity and strengths of HDLs, C++ and Java, with additional constructs targeted at functional verification making it ideal for developing testbenches, assertions and properties. OpenVera accelerates the creation of a verification environment by providing high-level constructs specifically designed for verification of complex SoCs. Designers create testbenches using OpenVera and EDA vendors create tools that are automatically interoperable.
There is broad and growing support for VOSI from leading companies in the community. Users click through a web-based license agreement, download the OpenVera language reference manual (LRM) and proceed to use, modify or improve it--at no cost. The community will advance the standard by submitting enhancements to Synopsys, Inc., the managing entity.
The Vera Open Source Initiative combines the broadest industry support with the best hardware language platform for testbench creation. VOSI fosters market expansion for new verification solutions and the rapid growth of a global market for innovative, new functional verification solutions.
