Abstract
The extremely dynamic and competitive nature of the wireless
communication systems market demands ever shorter times to market
for new products. Virtual prototyping has emerged as one of the
most promising techniques to offer the required time savings and
resulting increases in design efficiency. A fully automated
environment for development of virtual prototypes is presented
here, offering maximal efficiency gains, and supporting both
design and verification flows, from the algorithmic model to the
virtual prototype. The environment employs automated verification
pattern refinement to achieve increased reuse in the design
process, as well as increased quality by reducing human coding
errors.
