Aldec Introduces SCE-MI Pipes-based Flow for Streaming High-volume Data and 30% Speed Increase with Latest Release of HES-DVM
—
Aldec today announces the latest release of HES-DVM™ 2016.01 software package for emulation and simulation acceleration on HES-7™ and custom, in-house high speed prototyping boards. The latest release of HES-DVM delivers significant improvement to supported SCE-MI emulation modes. Users will benefit from a newly introduced SCE-MI Pipes-based flow, targeted for streaming large amounts of data, and a 30% speed increase for all emulation modes due to the latest optimizations of the emulation engine and infrastructure.
“The increasing popularity of emulation solutions, particularly for UVM acceleration, generates the demand for simplicity of the emulator integration and reuse of the existing simulation testbench,” said Zibi Zalewski, General Manager of Aldec’s Hardware Division. “Our response is the support of SCE-MI Pipes-based mode with the benefits of SystemVerilog API; fast development of streaming transactors and the natural extension of already supported SCE-MI Function-based. In addition, the latest changes of the emulator architecture allow for even faster emulation runs with a shorter setup process thanks to our newly added automatic placement of partitions for guided partitioning.”
