| Specman Course Updates Esperan has restructured and updated it's industry-leading Specman training. We have replaced the previously separate User and Developer classes with a single Block-Level Developers class and have significantly updated the content.
The new Specman Fundamentals for Block-Level Environment Developers class covers both verification environment development, environment use and test writing in a more effective, compact .4-day class format. Posted on 6-1-2012 4:30 pm UVM1.0 Class Updated Esperan has updated it's hugely successful UVM course to include the most useful features of the latest UVM1.0 release. The updated SystemVerilog Advanced Verification with UVM1.0 course replaces the previous UVM1.0(EA) Early Adopter class.
The new UVM1.0 release makes some significant changes to the previous UVM1.0EA (Early Adopter) version. Esperan has updated it's hugely successful UVM training class to incorporate the best of the new UVM features. We carefully explain which of the new features are essential, which are useful, and which are to be avoided for the time being. As a result of the changes, Esperan's UVM1.0EA course will only be available on specific request, for on-site classes only. We recommend all UVM users to update to the latest UVM1.0 release as soon as possible.
As an added bonus, we're still offering (for a limited time only) a free copy of the new UVM textbook, A Practical Guide to Adopting the Universal Verification Methodology, to every attendee on the UVM course. Posted on 31-8-2010 3:12 pm New SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA) class Esperan's SVA class is very popular, with it's emphasis on writing good assertions rather than simply teaching language syntax. Now, based on customer feedback, we've made it even better. The new release has added content in three main areas:- Reusability is key for assertions. We have enhanced our content to demonstrate different methods of writing reusable properties for scalable Assertion Based Verification IP (ABV IP). There are many common assertion problems which are extremely difficult to express using SVA syntax alone. We have a new section on auxiliary code to demonstrate how to address these problems and how to write properties that are more efficient, understandable and hence easier to debug using auxiliary code and SVA syntax together. Formal verification (FV) is fast becoming mainstream. We have enhanced our course to include a fuller description of it's benefits and methodology. Also the entire course content has been updated for consistency with FV, so even if you're not yet using the technology, you can be confident that the assertion techniques we teach you conform to FV best-practices. This is a key failing of many other SVA classes and online content. Posted on 31-8-2010 3:11 pm Successful training sessions at CDNLive! EMEA Esperan again ran highly successful hands-on training sessions at Cadence's CDNLive! EMEA. We delivered three introductory one hour sessions, giving attendees the opportunity to learn about SystemVerilog, OVM and Formal Verification. The first of these sessions will shortly available as an online tutorial. Posted on 31-8-2010 3:10 pm Advanced e Verification Training Esperan's entry-level courses for Specman and have been a huge success and enthusiastically adopted by many key Specman users. In response to repeated requests for similar, high-quality training for experienced developers, Esperan has developed the e Advanced Verification course. Created with exclusive access to the best Specman experts in the world, this course covers advanced topics in coverage; reuse; messaging and temporal expressions, as well as detailed information on the new Intelligen random number generator; macros and advanced sequences.
