Accelerating RTL Simulation with Hardware-Software Co-Design

Fast simulation of digital circuits is crucial to build modern chips. But RTL (Register-Transfer-Level) simulators are slow, as they cannot exploit multicores well. Slow simulation lengthens chip design time and makes bugs more frequent. We present ASH, a parallel architecture tailored to simulat...
