As semiconductor design complexity outpaces engineering bandwidth, the traditional verification role is transforming from manual execution into high-level strategic direction. This session charts the progression from foundation EDA engines (Questa One) and embedded analytical intelligence to autonomous agentic systems. Attendees will discover how this continuum empowers engineers to operate as design and verification scientists, focusing on architecture and intent while AI orchestrates execution.
Verification IQ establishes a unified data foundation across the verification lifecycle, connecting test planning, regression management, and coverage tracking. This presentation details how embedded intelligence, including Regression Navigator and Coverage Analyzer, eliminates redundant compute cycles and accelerates root-cause identification and coverage closure. Learn how engineering teams leverage data-driven visibility to de-risk delivery schedules, while applications like Testsuite Configurator automate testplan generation and regression setup for VIP protocol compliance.
Catching bugs early in the design cycle delivers the highest return on engineering investment and prevents costly downstream escapes. This session explores how Questa Developer and Static Formal Verification (SFV) bring intelligent assistance directly into the engineer's IDE. Attendees will see how automated lint analysis, CDC and RDC autofix, and push-button formal verification eliminate structural flaws and deep logic bugs before design handoff.
Moving beyond conversational assistants, the Questa One Agentic ToolKit introduces autonomous, goal-driven agents that actively orchestrate design and verification workflows. This deep dive demonstrates how the Five Flow Agents, with dedicated focus on Debug and Closure, automate complex root-cause triage, spec hardening, and coverage closure loops. Discover how teams achieve agentic RTL sign-off, reducing multi-week turnaround times to hours.
