Abstract
A system for designing digital circuitry comprising: a digital circuit simulator based on a file containing a functional description of this digital circuit; means for estimating an output variable from the digital circuit when executing a test bench supplied to the simulator; event counters, the events being detected using control signals provided by the simulator when executing the test bench. Said system further comprises means for selecting a portion of the event counters by iteratively optimizing a model for calculating the output variable of the digital circuit using output data from the event counters and means for registering the selected portion of event counters and the optimized calculation model.
