M*SDK, the OVP APIs and the OVP library of models have been a great asset to the FlexTiles project, enabling us to quickly create a virtual platform for our advanced architecture. We were able to use the Imperas technology and tools to develop multiple demonstrations of the FlexTiles architecture, including multiple hardware configurations, the Network on Chip (NoC) developed in this project and the operating system and software tools for FlexTiles.

The Imperas Golden RISC-V Reference Model helped us find many bugs in our cores.
However, the RISC-V architectural tests yielded no bugs, which is expected since the architectural tests are a subset of full verification.
