Types of prediction w.r.p.t SV-UVM RAL
Résumé
TLDRThis video provides an in-depth explanation of the different types of prediction mechanisms used to update real database registers in a simulation context. It introduces three distinct types of prediction: implicit (or auto) prediction, explicit prediction, and passive prediction. Implicit prediction is a default mechanism in simulators, happening automatically without user intervention. Explicit prediction allows flexibility as it can handle both register and bus sequences, updating the DUT (Design Under Test) register and register database. Passive prediction primarily utilizes bus sequences, which are converted into register sequences by the predictor equipped with an adapter. Additionally, the video discusses the role of monitors and adapters in converting and directing register and bus sequences, highlighting the importance of components like sequence, adapter, predictor, and monitor in managing data updates and ensuring that registers reflect the proper values throughout the simulation.

In this video, Munsef M. Ahmed continues from the previous discussion around the responsibilities of the predictor and adapter in a database system, focusing on the mechanism known as prediction. He introduces three types of prediction: implicit/auto prediction, explicit prediction, and passive prediction, which will be illustrated with diagrams. Additionally, there's a discussion on the four values maintained by a simulator for a register: reset, value, mirrored, and desired values. The mirrored value reflects the exact content of the DUT register, while the desired value is used to update the rail database in the future.

Vidéo Q&R
What are the types of prediction discussed in the video?
The video discusses three types of prediction: implicit (or auto) prediction, explicit prediction, and passive prediction.
What is the role of a predictor in simulations?
In simulations, a predictor updates the real database registers through a process called prediction, using an inbuilt adapter to convert bus sequences into register sequences.
How does implicit or auto prediction work?
In implicit or auto prediction, the simulator automatically updates the real database registers without manual intervention, enabled by using setAutoPredict(1).
What is explicit prediction and its advantage?
Explicit prediction allows both register and bus sequences to be defined, updating both the DUT register and the register database, making it more flexible compared to implicit prediction.
What differentiates passive prediction from explicit prediction?
In passive prediction, only a bus sequence is defined, and the predictor uses an analysis export to convert it into a register sequence, updating the register database, unlike explicit prediction which can use both sequences.
What are the four values maintained in a register block during simulation?
The four values are reset value, value, mirror value, and desired value.
What is the role of an adapter in the prediction process?
An adapter converts the bus sequence into a register sequence to update the register database accurately.
How are mirror and desired values used in the prediction mechanism?
The mirror value is an exact copy of the DUT register's content, while the desired value is used to update the rail database registers during prediction.
How is the resistor sequence related to bus sequence in prediction?
In prediction, the resistor sequence cannot drive directly to the DUT; it needs to be converted into a bus sequence using an adapter.
How does the monitor assist in the prediction process?
The monitor captures information from the DUT register and broadcasts it to components like scoreboard and reference models using an analysis port.
