Address-based waveform database architecture

Abstract:

A waveform simulation system with a waveform database architecture satisfies different requirements of different waveform simulation tools. The waveform simulation system includes a waveform database configured to store one or more mappings that map one or more design objects to one or more memory addresses. The waveform simulation system also includes a packet processing module configured to receive simulation data from a simulation tool. The packet processing module is configured to translate the simulation data into translated simulation data that is independent of implementation details of the one or more design objects, based at least in part on the one or more mappings. In some cases, the translated simulation data may include event data stored in the waveform database.
