Scalable Atomicity: February 2014
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 23, 2014. The Ultimate Digital Designer’s Assistant. BSV is the Ultimate Digital Designer’s Assistant! There’s a saying in our shop with regard to clearly-written BSV codes that goes something like this: “If it compiles, it will work”. With those words, hundreds of verification engineers have just aimed tactical nukes towards Manchester New Hampshire, so please let me explain. There are several reasons why this is the case, I’ll touch on a couple. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Scalable Atomicity: April 2013
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 7, 2013. Vivado 2013.1 / ISE 14.5. Xilinx shipped Vivado 2013.1 last week. If the engineering design and verification community needed any validation that " FPGA CAD Tools are closing ground on their ASIC centric brethren. Vivado is an excellent example. We see so much runway and room to grow here that we've been making proactive investments around nascent aspects of Vivado, such as IP Integrator (IPI). Our efforts in this regard were mentioned in this press release. And others without drama.

Scalable Atomicity: Dealt a new Deck
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2014/04/dealt-new-deck.html
Saturday, April 19, 2014. Dealt a new Deck. We are so excited with the release this week by Xilinx of Vivado 2014.1. Altera is looking to answer with their salvo of Quartus II. What a world it would be if Xilinx and Altera got out of the CAD tool business and just focused on world-class FPGA silicon, leaving the EDA tools to the EDA tool vendors. Or to the open source community! It's nice to dream. Still, with tool suites like Vivado that build in aspects like IP Integrato. View my complete profile.

Scalable Atomicity: OCP-IP move to Accellera
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2013/10/ocp-ip-move-to-accellera.html
Wednesday, October 16, 2013. OCP-IP move to Accellera. We're cautiously optimistic, maybe even excited, about the news that went public yesterday. Of OCP-IP being rolled into Accellera's warm arms. To understand why, years later, we still feel the OCP/AXI choice is like Coke and Pepsi. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. OCP-IP move to Accellera.

Scalable Atomicity: March 2014
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 30, 2014. A saying we use around here that has evolved from axiom to dogma is this:. 8220;We shall achieve Functional Correctness Quickly and Performance Correctness Iteratively”. How do we do this? In our world, where reconfigurable computing intersects with the business of complex concurrency, we have some things dictated to us and we have places where we have some room to choose. Device, we will use the flow thus dictated to us. Fine. BSV) for nearly a decade. Of producing an ordinal seq...

Scalable Atomicity: May 2013
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 14, 2013. We have used 4DSP. Products before. We recommend them to clients. We've evaluated several different models and liked the FMC150 so much, we purchased one to keep. We recently had the chance to work with the FMC116. But through the work and doc 4DSP put into this quality product, . it was! Thanks Pierrick and team! 4DSP FMC116 On bench.

Scalable Atomicity: June 2013
http://atomicrules.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 30, 2013. We have FPGAs carrying on conversations with other FPGAs all the time. Frequently we use layer 2 Ethernet between known devices on a LAN, although we are working our way up to layer 3. Wireshark is a go-to tool to see what is going on and share pcap captures with our colleagues. But how do you see the traffic between two FPGAs on a LAN when they are talking to each other? We had been playing all kinds of games before we found this little gem: the Netgear GS105E.

Scalable Atomicity: November 2013

Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Debian 7.2 and OpenCPI. We dealt with Debian. It's interesting seeing the subtle, and not-so-subtle, differences across a dozen different Linux distributions. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Debian 7.2 and OpenCPI.
