PSS Training Session 16 Now Available!

What Have We Learned? Bringing the Portable Stimulus Journey Full Circle.

In the final session of Accellera’s “Learning PSS” video series, Tom Fitzpatrick, PSS expert and charter member of Accellera’s Portable Stimulus Working Group, looks back at the key concepts explored throughout the series and shows how they work together to support the larger goal of the Portable Stimulus Standard: capturing verification intent once and reusing it across platforms, abstraction levels, and projects.

In this session, you’ll review:

• How PSS separates portable verification intent from target-specific realization, enabling reuse from IP to subsystem, SoC, software, and silicon
• How actions, activities, and control flow describe what needs to happen without hand-coding individual test sequences
• How constraints, randomization, scheduling, and inferencing allow tools to generate multiple legal scenarios from the same verification intent
• How flow objects, states, resources, components, pools, and binding help build scalable and reusable PSS models
• How packages, inheritance, and type extensions support reusable libraries and project-specific customization
• How address spaces, regions, and claims bring portable memory planning into generated scenarios
• How address handles, the Memory Access API, and executors connect portable models to target-specific execution
• How register models, groups, offsets, and handles enable portable register programming
• How PSS brings these capabilities together in a reusable, hierarchical abstract model that can generate verification scenarios across different target platforms

Watch Session 16 for a recap of the “Learning PSS” journey and see how the concepts covered throughout the series come together to enable greater portability, reuse, and verification productivity.
