We present a novel methodology for design space exploration using a two-steps scheme to optimize the number of virtual channel buffers (buffers take the premier share of the route...
Extensive software-based simulation continues to be the mainstream methodology for functional verification of designs. To optimize the use of limited simulation resources, coverag...
