SystemVerilog provides an advantage in addressing the verification complexity challenge—not simply as a new language for describing complex structures, but as a platform for driving a more efficient, ...

You all write code and then toil to makeit work. You build it, and then you fixit. Testing is an afterthought—somethingyou do after you write the code.You spend about half your time in ...

Google's Bard chatbot now has the capability to help you with programming tasks. The tech giant said that coding has been one of its users' top requests, and now it has given Bard the ability to ...

Make it a habit to dig deeper and find more information about the issue before starting to debug a non-trivial issue. For example: is this a new problem? If so, starting when? Is this only visible to ...

Back in the day, we'd write some code, compile, execute, see what happened and repeat. That was testing. (Sometimes that's still what testing looks like, for better or worse.) Today, we can do a lot ...

Following math and logic enhancements last month, Google has updated Bard to generate code, as well as debug and explain it. The company says this can “help you by offering new ways to write code, ...

If you have ever tried to debug optimized code, you probably realized that it can be a frustrating experience. Without optimizations, your debugger is a reliable assistant, precisely following every ...

Modern multithreaded, asynchronous code can be hard to debug. The complexity that comes with message passing and thread management results in bugs that can seem non-determinant, with little or no way ...

With each turn of Moore's Law, designers at every phase in the development process are challenged with new levels of complexity. Chip designers must not only get the integrated circuit (IC) logic, ...
