Welcome to this course – Advanced topics in SystemVerilog Verification Methodology (VMM/Pre-UVM). As with many of our other courses on Udemy we use  a hybrid approach of slides + presenter + whiteboard to make the learning more dynamic than slide-plus-audio-only style. Feel free to contact us if you want a more seasoned, slide-plus-audio type course with labs etc. We will be glad to assist you with the same.

Objectives

To appreciate key concepts behind factory OOP pattern

Appreciate callback and other design patterns as it applies to verification

Learn how sequences/scenarios help in verification

Understand how a Scheduler – like that of UVM Sequencer – works

Prerequisites

Audience must be familiar with Verification features of SystemVerilog and basic methodology (VMM/UVM). If you need to get started, we suggest you look at our Udemy course titled: SystemVerilog Verification Methodology – using VMM (Pre-UVM)

Topics covered

Factory pattern

Introduction, requirements

Methods

Using factory to change the generator output

Callbacks

Introduction, requirements

Fa?ade class declaration

Adding the callback hook in transactor

Populating the callback method

Registering callbacks

Error Injection example

Scenario Generator – precursor to UVM Sequences

Array randomization woes in SV

Using pre-built scenario generator

In-depth view of scenario generator

Extending scenario generator

Tweaking election policy

Notifications in VMM – UVM events complimentary

Define, configure, notify, sync

Get status/transaction

Different types of notifications

Sample applications

Scheduler (similar to UVM Sequencer)

Broadcaster

Slides use VMM base class library, however concepts are applicable to UVM as well. Also the narration relates relevant UVM counterparts thereby making the connection easier for users to appreciate
