Abstract: With a verification environment based on the UVM (universal verification Methodology) verification methodology and UVM1.1 standard library, building a reference model through the aspect-oriented paradigm and separation of properties of function, timing and structure and generating the high functional coverage test cases based on knowledge base at the transaction level, the integrated verification platform took the PKU-DSPII as example, to implement RISC CPU-oriented functional verification and domain reuse. Experimental results show that the reusability is enhanced significantly and the coverage efficiency of the test cases improves about 7% relatively.

Key words: UVM, aspect-oriented modeling, intelligent verification, domain knowledge reuse, verification automation
