mental improvements during the same period. What is clearly needed
in verification techniques and technology is the equivalent of a
synthesis productivity breakthrough. In the second edition of
Writing Testbenches, Bergeron raises the verification level of
abstraction by introducing coverage-driven constrained-random
transaction-level self-checking testbenches all made possible
through the introduction of hardware verification languages (HVLs),
such as e from Verisity and OpenVera from Synopsys. The
state-of-art methodologies described in Writing Test benches will
contribute greatly to the much-needed equivalent of a synthesis
breakthrough in verification productivity. I not only highly
recommend this book, but also I think it should be required reading
by anyone involved in design and verification of today's ASIC, SoCs
and systems. Harry Foster Chief Architect Verplex Systems, Inc.

PREFACE If you survey hardware design groups, you will learn that
between 60% and 80% of their effort is now dedicated to
verification."
