Abstract: A method for identifying locked-up simulation testbench components during a simulation is disclosed. In some embodiments, the method includes creating, by an initiator simulation testbench component, at least one migrant packet. The method further includes circulating, during a component identification cycle, each of the at least one migrant packet in an associated predefined direction through each of the plurality of simulation testbench components in the associated daisy loop from the at least one daisy loop. The method further includes circulating, during an issue identification cycle, each of the least one migrant packet in the associated predefined direction through each of the plurality of simulation testbench components in the associated daisy loop.

Abstract: A method for off-loading streams selection to generate organized concurrent streams in a simulation environment is disclosed. In some embodiments, the method includes receiving at least one stream selection request for a DUT from a DUT input generator; performing a stream selection process in response to receiving the request. In order to perform the stream selection process, the method includes analyzing each of a plurality of stream specification entries of a stream specification entries array; selecting a stream from the plurality of streams based on one or more of the set of stream specification entry fields associated with the stream; and generating a stream selection result object based on the selected stream; sending the stream selection result object associated with the selected stream to a respective DUT input generator; and utilizing, by the respective DUT input generator, the stream selection result object associated with the selected stream.
