Cloud-based Verification of Open Source RISC-V Cores Using the Metrics Cloud Platform and Codasip SweRV Support Package

on YouTube ↗21m

" summary

Demonstrates running full RTL regressions for the open-source SweRV cores using the Metrics Cloud Platform and Codasip SweRV Support Package with SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches, an elastic cloud simulator that distributes thousands of tests in parallel. Claims include about 10x throughput for long regressions and roughly 50% cost savings versus on-prem flow, plus support for SDK, lint, synthesis and equivalence checks to reach ~95%+ code and functional coverage.
