Fintronic USA, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance Verilog
simulators announced support for FinSimMath, a Verilog extension for
mathematical computations.
Dr. Alec Stanculescu, CEO and President of Fintronic USA, stated
"One does not need to leave the Verilog simulation environment in
order to describe high level mathematical algorithms. For example,
inverting a 2000x2000 sparse matrix takes one line to declare the
matrix, one line to populate it, one line to to compute the inverse
and one line to print the result. Also, the whole operation
takes less than 2 seconds on a 1.8GHz AMD Opteron running FinSim
version 9_3_29 or higher."
ABOUT FinSimMath
FinSimMath, an extension of Verilog for Mathematical computations, is
described in chapter 8 of the FinSim User's Guide, available for
download on www.fintronic.com/support.html.
The tutorial available on www.fintronic.com/finmath.html
provides running examples in extended Verilog that show how to:
(1) modify during the simulation the format (floating point or fixed
point), as well as the number of bits used for each field of the format
in the model of a low pass filter,
(2) perform without the need of explicit conversion functions
arithmetic operations with operands of type complex (cartesian or
polar) or of matrices having elements of type complex, including the
computation of the inverse of such matrices,
(3) compute the pseudo inverse of matrices,
(4) separate data from its location using high level constructs such as the "View as" and InitM constructs for multi-threading processing,
(5) perform fast autocorelation,
(6) exchange FinSimMath data between modules, and
(7) monitor special conditions, such as overflow or underflow.
