Abstract
Using verification IP (VIP), the related design IP (DIP) can be integrated into a system on a chip (SOC) without requiring the IP component. Using a normalized framework, a software module can be integrated into the VIP software stack enabling the customized management of the VIP beyond the standard specification defined behaviors. Then, the modified software stack can be used to manage both behaviors defined by the specification and the design specific behaviors. The VIP can then be used in place of the DIP for SOC development.
