An efficient mechanism for debugging RTL description
Jiann-Chyi Ran, Y. H. Chang, Chia-Hung Lin · 2004
In this paper, an efficient algorithm to diagnose design errors in RTL description is proposed. The diagnosis algorithm exploits the hierarchy available in RTL designs to locate design errors. Using data-path to reduce the number of error candidates and ensure that true errors are included in. According to the estimated probability, the most suspected error candidates would be reported first in the display. The advantages of the proposed method are simple and available.
