Abstract
A system for tracing signals for a cycle-based simulation includes a traced signal and a system resources availability information of the cycle-based simulation, a runtime compiler configured to use the system resources availability information to assign a system resource to trace the traced signal, a logic design used with the system resources availability information to generate a simulation image, a first value of the traced signal generated by execution of a simulation image, and a traced signal buffer configured to store the first value and upload the first value.
