Its support for UPF makes it a fully loaded verification platform

CVC has integrated MPSim into its training labs and advanced research work and starting to explore emerging features like the DesignerUVM - which is unique in the industry as of now.

Agnisys offers affordable VLSI design and verification tools for SoC, FPGAs and IPs that makes design verification process extremely efficient.

We at CVC have been using IDS from Agnisys to create VMM/UVM RAL/Register descriptions that automate ~20% of our TB code. We also demonstrate this during our advanced training sessions.

The SpringSoft Harmony Partner Program promotes interoperability between our partners' products and Novas Verification Enhancement and Laker Custom IC Design solutions. Our partners in the Harmony Program are provided with access to SpringSoft software licenses, integration expertise and joint marketing campaigns. 

CVC has been enjoying a fruitful partnership with SpringSoft with joint promotions via its trainings, blogs (www.cvcblr.com/blog ) and other avenues in highlighting modern day debug challenges and how SpringSoft's technologies help tackle them effectively.

CVC has been a key enabler of VMM deployment, dissemination right from its early days. Our technical executives have co-authored a famous book on "A Pragmatics approach to VMM Adoption" and our VMM trainings have been praised by many of our customers including Quartics, NVidia etc. We at CVC blog along with key users of VMM at www.vmmcentral.org and www.cvcblr.com/blog to disseminate the learnings of this every growing methodology.

OVM is the first truly inter-operable verification methodology incorporating years of proven concepts from eRM and AVM.

CVC has been a OVM partner and has delivered several trainings on OVM and deployed/demonstrated benefits of OVM to its customers in AsiaPac region.
