Corner Case Scenario Generation (CCSG) Tool: A Novel Approach to find corner case bugs in next generation SoCs

The next generation SoCs are supporting multi-power domains and multi- mode operations features for supporting aggressive operational functionality and reduced power numbers. There are various asynchronous events like external resets, external interrupts, external wakeups, clock failures etc. which might occur during the windows of ongoing mode transitions in the actual use-case scenario of the SoC.
