Wave Computing® Inc., the Silicon Valley company accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) from the data center to the edge, and Imperas Software Ltd., the leader in virtual platforms and software simulation, introduced a new Instruction Set Simulator (ISS) for the MIPS Open™ community of SoC designers and processor architects, called MIPSOpenOVPsim™.  MIPSOpenOVPsim will be made available for download through the MIPS Open program on June 3, 2019 at https://www.mipsopen.com.

 

“The Imperas simulation and modeling technology has been a reliable and high-quality testing model used internally by the MIPS engineering team for many years,“ said Krishna Raghavan, president of Wave Computing’s MIPS IP Licensing business. “We’re delighted to partner with Imperas to make this industrial-grade simulation technology available to support the MIPS Open program and further the momentum around open hardware development.”

 

MIPSOpenOVPsim is a MIPS system architecture simulator, available at no cost, which implements a complete single-core CPU. This downloadable tool delivers industry standard simulations to test commercial SoC design performance and quality. MIPSOpenOVPsim offers:

 

MIPSOpenOVPsim helps SoC developers by providing a comprehensive testing platform for all MIPS Open specifications and extensions including:

MIPSOpenOVPsim is an entry ramp for software development, SoC testing and verification. For developers of more advanced designs who need multi-core support and advanced debug tools, Imperas also offers full-capability virtual platforms. MIPSOpenOVPsim includes a freedom to use license model from Imperas, which supports commercial as well as academic use. Further details are available at http://www.imperas.com.

 

Highlights of MIPSOpenOVPsim include:

“Having partnered with the Wave Computing MIPS engineering team and IP customers over the past decade, our model and simulation technology has enabled MIPS-based devices to be deployed across a broad range of embedded markets,” said Simon Davidmann, president and CEO, Imperas. “This no-cost instruction set simulator is an ideal start for developers looking to explore the potential of various SoC designs through Wave Computing’s MIPS Open program.”

Imperas will demonstrate the MIPSOpenOVPsim, as well as other MIPS-based virtual platforms and tools, at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) taking place June 2-6, 2019 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Booth #1030. Further details are at https://www.dac.com.

Wave Computing will highlight MIPSOpenOVPsim at the MIPS Open Developer Day on June 2, 2019 at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Convention Center Las Vegas, 3600 Paradise Road, Las Vegas, NV, 89169. Interested developers can register for this free event at:
