DVCon U.S. 2022 Advance Program Available

Keynote to focus on Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

Gainesville, FL – December 8, 2021 – The advance program is now available for the 2022 Design and Verification Conference and Exhibition United States (DVCon U.S.), sponsored by Accellera Systems Initiative. The virtual conference and exhibition will be held February 28-March 3, 2022.

“We have an exciting technical program in store for attendees,” stated John Dickol, DVCon U.S. 2022 Program Chair. “This year we added another layer to our already rigorous paper review process, helping to ensure attendees receive the quality program they’ve come to expect from DVCon. Attendees can look forward to sessions covering low power, RISC-V, UVM, machine learning, Portable Stimulus, functional safety and much more. In addition to 42 paper presentations, we’ll have 15 poster presentations, two panels, four tutorials and 11 workshops throughout the four-day program.”

The keynote for the 2022 program, “Unleashing AI/ML for Faster Verification Closure,” will be presented by Manish Pandey, Vice President of Engineering, Synopsys on Tuesday, March 1 at 1:00pm. The keynote will explore how exploiting supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement learning has enabled an order of magnitude gains in closure convergence and verification cycle reduction.

Two panels will be offered on Tuesday, March 2. The first panel, “The Meeting of the SoC Verification Hidden Dragons,” will begin at 8:30 am and the second panel, “Going Faster – How to Cope with Shrinking Schedules and Increasing Complexity,” will begin at noon.

Registration is open. Advance registration rates are available through January 7, 2022. Registration for the keynote, panels and exhibits-only is free.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
