Accellera Systems Initiative is an independent, not-for profit organization dedicated to create, support, promote, and advance system-level design, modeling, and verification standards for use by the worldwide electronics industry. We are composed of a broad range of members that fully support the work of our technical committee to develop technology standards that are balanced, open, and benefit the worldwide electronics industry. Leading companies and semiconductor manufacturers around the world are using our electronic design automation (EDA) and intellectual property (IP) standards in a wide range of projects in numerous application areas to develop consumer, mobile, wireless, automotive, and other “smart” electronic devices. Through an ongoing partnership with the IEEE, standards and technical implementations developed by Accellera Systems Initiative are contributed to the IEEE for formal standardization and ongoing governance.

PSS case studies in real-life projects

PSS (Portable Test and Stimulus Standard) was first released in 2018 to enable a single representation of stimulus and test scenarios that can be re-used across multiple verification and test engines and also provide the means for intelligent constrained random testing at the SoC level.

Six years later, PSS is adopted by many chip design companies in multiple use cases, verticals, and platforms!

In this workshop, we will review practical applications and real-life use cases of PSS adoption, focusing on the challenges that PSS was used to address, the way it was used to tackle them with Perspec™ System Verifier.

Workshop Highlights
During this workshop, you will have the opportunity to:

Real-world applications: Discover how PSS is being used in real-world projects to improve productivity, enhance SoC-level coverage, and reduce time-to-market.
Industry insights: Learn from industry leaders and pioneers who have successfully implemented Portable Stimulus in their projects and gain valuable insights into best practices and emerging trends.
Gain in-depth knowledge: Our expert speakers will delve into the latest enhancements of the PSS standard and Cadence’s System Verification libraries.

Who Should Attend?
This workshop is tailored for professionals in hardware and software design, verification, and testing. Whether you're a design engineer, verification engineer, or project manager overseeing system-on-chip development, this workshop is designed to enhance your understanding of Portable Stimulus and provide you with the knowledge and skills to apply it effectively in your projects.
