RISC-V Q&A Session with Shaun Giebel

Shaun Giebel, director of product management at OneSpin, answers questions around RISC-V verification that community members submitted.

RISC-V Q&A: Introduction

The Challenges of Verifying RISC-V

RISC-V Q&A: Introduction

Shaun Giebel, director of product management, gives a quick introduction to the challenges of verifying RISC-V but also shows how OneSpin's verification methodology can help to deal with the complexity of such open-source cores.

RISC-V Q&A: Question #1

Is there a special formal technique for RISC-V only?

RISC-V Q&A: Question #1

Shaun Giebel goes into the details about the formal approach for verifying RISC-V, especially with regards to property creation under the constraints of the dedicated ISA.

RISC-V Q&A: Question #2

Since RISC-V is a huge design, how can one verify it, and what are the initial assumptions?

RISC-V Q&A: Question #2

Shaun Giebel gives tips on how to tackle larger RISC-V designs by using the so-called "divide-and-conquer" verification approach.

RISC-V Q&A: Question #3

What could be the benefits of using formal tools instead of conventional simulation tools if a company desires to certify a RISC-V implementation against safety-critical standards?

RISC-V Q&A: Question #3

For Shaun Giebel, director of product management at OneSpin, the benefits of using formal instead of conventional simulation clearly stand out. In this Q&A, he goes into the details of how formal beats simulation, especially with regards to safety-critical designs.

RISC-V Q&A: Question #4

I’ve heard that the RISC-V core is written in the Chisel language. Does the OneSpin tool support that language?

RISC-V Q&A: Question #4

Shaun Giebel about Chisel, the special language used for RISC-V cores, and OneSpin's approach in supporting it.
