Does anyone have any experience with the digital electronics
simulation program, VeriLog (on IRIS 4Ds)? It is distributed by
Cadence Design Systems.
It has been rumoured that some version of it is working on the IRIS
system but I need authentification of this. The distributors strongly deny
that there is useful working version or, at least, that there is no official
version which they support. This makes us a bit uneasy and some users are
suggesting that we purchase SparcStations to run the supported SUN version.
I don't like this option and would prefer to hear that some of you are
using VeriLog and are happy with its performance. Can anyone comment?
Note: If you could reply as soon as is permissible; purchase deadlines
ans all that jazz.
Thanks in advance,

We have been running them successfully on 4D240GTXs and see no reason why they should not run a 4D25s. We are negotiating with Cadence to obtain another licence which we would like to try out on a 4D25. We have run simulations of at least 2 major chips, FDDI MACs from some 3rd party vendors, without any difficulties. Indeed, Cadence does not have an official SGI port. We have been running a MIPS version. This required a few small changes in make files. Cadence is reluctant to recognize this as an official port. They are wary of the cost of supporting yet another port. jan
