Applying QED to Hardware Accelerator Verification. Innovation in Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 06-30-2026 at 6:00 am

Innovation New

QED (Quick Error Detection) can be a powerful complementary addition to verification but can be subject to size constraints. This month’s paper looks at a fix for that limitation. Paul Cunningham (GM, Verification at Cadence), Raúl Camposano (Silicon Catalyst, entrepreneur, former Synopsys CTO and lecturer at Stanford, EE292A)… Read More


When Software Outruns Silicon: Hardware-Assisted Test Generation to the Rescue

When Software Outruns Silicon Figure 1

For the past decade, the semiconductor industry has been moving in one direction: shift-left, specifically, shifting more validation into the pre-silicon phase. The idea was straightforward: if software ultimately determines how a system behaves, then software should become a primary vehicle for verification.

The industry… Read More
