Abstract
Design verification as part of development provides an opportunity to correct design errors, improve performance characteristics, and optimize hardware. This paper presents the strategy and an overview of the verification performed in the development of a VLSI VAX microcomputer. Using a hierarchical methodology for simulation and verification, the logic design and circuit design have been verified.

GPU Accelerated VLSI Design Verification
CIT '10: Proceedings of the 2010 10th IEEE International Conference on Computer and Information TechnologyToday’s Very Large Scale Integrated-Circuit (VLSI) designs require intensive verification effort. However, traditional sequential verification solutions could no longer provide the scalability for future large designs. The so-called verification gap ...
