Abstract

This paper introduces a new method for optimization of coverage-driven verification (CDV) that is based on evolutionary computing. In comparison to the classical CDV that utilizes random search, using this method the convergence to the maximum coverage is much faster, fewer transactions are used and no manual effort is required from the user. Moreover, the optimization is targeted to the verification process itself without the dependence on the circuit that is verified.
