SAN JOSE, CALIF. –– May 23, 2025 ––

WHO: Breker Verification Systems whose production-proven Trek portfolio solves challenges across the functional verification process for large, complex semiconductors

WHAT: Hosts a seminar titled “Smart Verification Strategies for the Evolving RISC-V Challenge” and a panel featuring RISC-V verification thought leaders for RISC-V developers and engineers looking to understand next-generation verification strategies

WHEN: Wednesday, June 11, from 9:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. C.D.T, including lunch

WHERE: Norris Conference Centers Austin, 2525 W. Anderson Lane, Suite 365, Austin, Texas.

Seminar Description
RISC-V represents a major opportunity for the entire semiconductor industry. With this opportunity comes new challenges, one of the most significant being RISC-V core verification. With the advent of more complex RISC-V processors, engineers developing cores or leveraging them in their SoCs must take on new verification scenarios that require different techniques.

The complimentary seminar will describe the status of RISC-V before taking a deep dive into a popular tutorial on a classic complex RISC-V verification example. The session will conclude with a panel of RISC-V verification thought leaders providing their visions over a networking lunch. The event will be interesting to both.
