 EETimes.com - Accellera reneges on IEEE SystemVerilog transfer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
Accellera has reneged on its commitment to transfer the SystemVerilog extensions to the IEEE 1364 standard so that the extensions can be integrated into the parent language.
The decision of the Accellera Board of Directors to renege on its commitment to transfer SystemVerilog to the IEEE 1364 Verilog Standards Group was based purely on political reasons, and not technical ones.
The Accellera Board is literally reneging (going back on its promise or commitment) on its stated purpose and goal to transfer SystemVerilog to the IEEE 1364 standards group.

 Accellera approves new version of co-emulation modeling interface standard - Management Technology News by ...
The Accellera EDA standards organization said its standard co-emulation modeling interface 1.1 was approved by the organization's board of directors last month.
Accellera will continue to work on the standard for eventually handoff to IEEE for standardization.
Dennis Brophy, Accellera chair, said that the handoff would probably not take place for a year a more, but that Accellera's interface technical committee has already started meeting to discuss simplification improvements to the standard prior to the handoff.

Accellera would gladly accept a donation of CPF, too--just as Cadence has invited its leading competitors to join the PFI advisory group or the forthcoming IEEE working group.
He noted that the leading EDA vendors already have their own power formats, and that what needs to be done now is mostly a matter of coming up with a common syntax.
An Accellera effort with multiple technology donations might have been ap- propriate a year ago before CPF was developed, Willis said, but going back to such a process now would slow everything down.

 EETimes.com - Accellera reviews standards, presents award
Accellera's decision to pursue SystemVerilog standardization through the IEEE's corporate standards group, rather than the existing IEEE 1364 committee, has raised concerns about the development of incompatible language standards.
Karen Bartleson, Accellera secretary, said the choice was made because the corporate standards group has an "entity" model of one vote per company, versus the "individual" model that prevails in other IEEE working groups, including IEEE 1364.
Insiders say some Accellera members were concerned about the number of votes that Cadence Design Systems and Verisity have in the IEEE 1364 group, which has a "one individual, one vote" policy.

 Embedded.com - Consultant lauds Accellera's role in SystemVerilog 3.1
ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Accellera standards organization is playing a crucial role in the development of SystemVerilog 3.1, according to language expert Stuart Sutherland, who spoke at a SystemVerilog workshop at the Design Automation Conference here Monday (June 2).
Accellera and the IEEE 1364 standards committee clashed on the eve of DAC, as the IEEE 1364 group called for technology donations for the next version of Verilog and set up a user's forum with no input from Accellera.
He said that Accellera's role was to seek appropriate donations and "munge them together" to form a standard that met the needs of designers.

SystemVerilog 3.1a is the version that will go to the IEEE for standardization, but Accellera board members are reportedly reconsidering whether it will go to the IEEE 1364 working group, which has had acrimonious relationships with Accellera in the past.
If Accellera donates the language to some other IEEE entity, some observers fear a potential language split, given that the IEEE 1364 group is directly responsible for the standardization of Verilog.
Meanwhile, Brophy said, Accellera is continuing a dialog with EDA vendors behind a proposed SystemVerilog implementation working group.

 Leading Electronics and EDA Companies Rally Together in Support of Accellera Formal Property Language
"The Accellera Formal Verification Technical Committee defined an open, transparent, and fair process that led to the selection of Sugar as the new industry-standard formal property language," said Harry Foster, chairman of the Technical Committee.
The new Accellera formal property language has the right balance of expressiveness for formal verification tools and intuitiveness for users.
Accellera's selection of Sugar as the standard property language will pave the way for designers and engineers to more easily develop and deploy advanced verification tools, thereby enabling them to focus on providing competitive advantages to their customers."

 Accellera transfers OpenKit work to Si2
The transfer was prompted, at least in part, by the hiring last October by Si2 of Nick English, the former chair of the OpenKit Initiative within Accellera, according to Shrenik Mehta, Accellera chairman.
The OpenKit Initiative, established in 2003, was created to establish standards for the physical design kits used by IC designers.
According to Accellera, the OpenKit materials being transferred define a custom-design schematic symbol kit that categorizes the common data sets, files, models and IC processes important to establish common design flows.

 Gabe's Commentary: Accellera and the SystemVerilog standards process - 6/10/2004 - EDN
The controversy surrounding the channel chosen by the Board of Directors of Accellera to deliver SystemVerilog 3.1a to the IEEE for national and international standardization has its roots in events that have not been published to my knowledge.
In late 2003 Accellera joined the CAG because it provided a way to increase its ability to receive corporate input, raise its profile as the most effective incubator of new EDA standards, and potentially increase its membership.
One of the results was that the coordination of the work between the 1364 WG that was developing the next generation Verilog specification, and the Accellera SystemVerilog Technical Committee did not have a proper structural liaison.
