Making Verification Methodology and Tool Decisions
By Hamilton Carter, Cadence Design Systems
This is the second of a three parts series. Part 1 can be found here
Are you itching to try a new methodology or technology to enhance your existing processes? Are you certain that management will resist change? Read on and learn how to use the new field of metric-driven engineering to objectively justify your decisions using automatically gathered data.
It happens all the time in engineering. A new process or methodology comes along. It looks attractive, your gut tells you this is the way to go, but adopting it requires one the big three 'scary' things:

It happens all the time in engineering. A new process or methodology comes along. It looks attractive, your gut tells you this is the way to go, but adopting it requires one the big three 'scary' things:
- Risk (We've never done this before, will it work?)
- Cultural change (You want my designers to write assertions?)
- Spending money (Are you sure that tool will pay for itself?)
