amitk3553 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 What is constraint solver in SV? What is the meaning of statement if we say that "SV is having powerful constraint solver"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apfitch Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 For your first question, try reading this Wikipedia article on constraint programming: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_programming The solver is the part of a SystemVerilog simulator that solves the constraints (produces a set of values for random variables that satisfy the constraints). For your second question, the SystemVerilog standard states "If a solution exists, the constraint solver shall find it. The solver can fail only when the problem isover-constrained and there is no combination of random values that satisfy the constraints." Which you could argue means the constraint solver is "powerful". regards Alan amitk3553 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
