Test Scenario Generation at
the Electronic System Level
Test
scenario is a reference set of input and output
transaction sequences and associated tables that describe
the relationships among the transactions. The transactions
becomes stimulus and expected output on major DUT internal
and external interfaces. By generating transactions at the Electronic System
Level (ESL), the simulation environment is simplified
dramatically and more CPU power is allocated to DUT during
simulation.
Moreover,
the DUT is freed from its form with Draco. The DUT can be a
C model, an RTL design, or downloaded to an emulator or FPGA
prototype board. Regardless the location of the DUT, all of
them run the same test scenarios. There is no need to have
different, but duplicated, test cases for C model, RTL
simulation, and FPGA emulation.
Networking Architecture Simulator (ASIM)
Networking Architecture Simulator (ASIM) is a
program and a library that models a computer network topology, ISO
network layers, network traffic, and standard network protocols at
the ESL. The result of such modeling
generates a set of flows and packets (transactions) that move across
the modeling points. Information tables for port mapping, routing,
and classification are also generated for the DUT configuration.
Supports
Standards
When used with Draco’s Design Interface Modules,
ASIM generates golden scenarios that are fully complied to the
following standards:
-
Ethernet
-
Internet Protocols
-
PPP
-
Cisco HDLC
-
MPLS
-
IP
-
TCP
-
UDP
-
Fibre Channel
-
MPEG
