Open Verification Library (OVL) Technical
Subcommittee
Accellera's OVL SurveyHelp us improve
the Open Verification Library (OVL) to achieve an even better Assertion-Based
Verification (ABV) industry standard. The Accellera OVL technical committee is
interested in learning about your usage of assertion checkers and suggestions
for future enhancements of OVL. If you do not currently use OVL, we want to
learn what barriers exist that prevent you from adopting OVL. Please take a few minutes to participate in our survey. Your opinion is very valuable to us!
Scope and charter
The OVL library of assertion checkers is intended to be used by design,
integration, and verification engineers to check for good/bad behavior in
simulation, emulation, and formal verification.
The subcommittee is responsible for the definition and development of the
standard Open Verification Library (OVL) language reference manual and
assertion-checker libraries.
