Transaction-Based Acceleration - Second generation

Transaction-Based Acceleration is becoming more and more important as an extension to In-Circuit Emulation and migration path from simulation. It helps to provide performance gain while maintaining the flexibility of simulation-based tools. There are three goals for this environment:

1. Verification acceleration for HVL-based environment

2. Verification acceleration and system verification for hybrid environment combining IP or virtual platform (running as C, C++ or SystemC reference model) with cycle-accurate code ported into RTL.

 3. System verification combining behavioral code and in-circuit emulation running in hybrid mode.
