Hello Jayant,
 
As the chair for the SV-EC I request that Synopsys make a donation of the C
implementation of $srandom and $urandom. This was voted on in today's
meeting and the committee voted to request this implementation.
 
There were a number of comments made that the implementation that exists is
intimately tied to the constraint solver and an agreement by the committee
that donation of the constraint solver would not be appropriate. The primary
requirement stated for having a single implementation is to provide
repeatability in generating random numbers when not used with a constraint
solver.
 
If you could please consider this request and either provide the
implementation or, if Synopsys does not wish to make the donation, a
statement as to why it is not appropriate.
 
Regards
David
 
David W. Smith
Chair, SV-EC
