One important generic concept that STL made C++ developers familiar with is the concept of iterator. An iterator is used to visit the elements of a container without exposing [...] Continue reading How to write abstract iterators in C++ Functional verification is a major bottleneck in the chip design cycle. Any misstep in closing the functional correctness of a digital system costs millions of dollars in redesign, additional testing, and silicon respins. One can argue at length about its actual cost, but people in the industry usually agree that functional verification takes between [...] Continue reading The formal verification market is still untapped

Usually it starts with a very small engineering team –sometimes I was the very first member of the team. This is a great opportunity to lay strong foundations for the subsequent software development, because one is in charge of the [...] Continue reading API design 101 |
