Abstract:
A computer system includes a hardware accelerator and host processor. The hardware accelerator executes a simulation of a first logical model according to a plurality of simulation cycles. The host processor determines a fault checkpoint based on a logic fault that occurs in response to executing the simulation. The host processor verifies removal of the logic fault based on rerunning the simulation from the fault checkpoint.
