Number of Design Bugs Found Reaches Record High

SAN JOSE, Calif. , Feb. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oski Technology, Inc., the established and trusted leader in Formal verification methodology expertise, today announced that its Formal Verification business grew in 2017 to include a deep array of verification application challenges.

The result is in an unprecedented number of design bugs and corner case bugs being identified.

Oski provided expertise on more than 17 different verification projects for processor, GPU, intellectual property (IP), network on chip (NoC), switching, networking and wireless designs. Formal applications of these designs ranged from register transfer logic (RTL) control logic and data transport to architectural formal cache coherency and sequential equivalence checking. Oski’s Formal Verification expertise uncovered more than 1,000 bugs with 233 of them deemed to be significant corner case bugs that would have been impractical to detect in simulation. What’s more, they could have had a dramatic impact on design operation.

“The growth in the number of designs as well as the breadth of designs and verification applications that our experts are tackling is a testament to the trust and confidence that our customers place in us,” comments Vigyan Singhal, president and chief executive officer of Oski Technology. “The value we provided our customers in 2017 can be plainly seen in the extraordinary number of critical bugs we uncovered for them using our proven verification sign-off methodology. Verification is in our company’s DNA, and we expect to continue to strive to lead the way in verification in 2018.”

Oski will offer demonstrations of the Oski Formal Sign-Off Methodology™ and Abstraction Models™ to achieve End-to-End Formal™ verification and complete coverage during in DVCon Booth #205. The DVCon Expo and Reception will be held Monday, February 26, from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. Regular exhibit hours will be held Tuesday, February 27, and Wednesday, February 28, from 2:30 p.m. until 6 p.m. DVCon will be held at the DoubleTree Hotel in San Jose, Calif.
