标题： Hey AI, Generate Me a Hardware Code! Agentic AI-based Hardware Design & Verification

摘要： 现代集成电路（IC）变得越来越复杂，其开发过程也是如此。 硬件设计验证涉及对功能正确的硬件设计的规划、开发、执行和签核的方法论和有纪律的方法。 这个繁琐的过程需要大量的努力和时间，以确保无错误的tape-out。 自然语言处理领域随着大型语言模型（LLMs）的出现经历了重大转变。 这些强大的模型通常被称为生成式人工智能（GenAI），它们彻底改变了机器理解和生成人类语言的方式，使得在包括硬件设计验证在内的广泛应用中实现了前所未有的进展。 本文提出了一种基于代理的AI方法用于硬件设计验证，该方法使AI代理在与人在回路（HITL）干预协作下，能够参与更加动态、迭代和自我反思的过程，最终实现端到端的硬件设计和验证。 该方法在五个开源设计上进行了评估，在减少验证时间的同时实现了超过95%的覆盖率，并表现出卓越的性能、适应性和可配置性。 显示英文摘要

摘要： Modern Integrated Circuits (ICs) are becoming increasingly complex, and so is their development process. Hardware design verification entails a methodical and disciplined approach to the planning, development, execution, and sign-off of functionally correct hardware designs. This tedious process requires significant effort and time to ensure a bug-free tape-out. The field of Natural Language Processing has undergone a significant transformation with the advent of Large Language Models (LLMs). These powerful models, often referred to as Generative AI (GenAI), have revolutionized how machines understand and generate human language, enabling unprecedented advancements in a wide array of applications, including hardware design verification. This paper presents an agentic AI-based approach to hardware design verification, which empowers AI agents, in collaboration with Humain-in-the-Loop (HITL) intervention, to engage in a more dynamic, iterative, and self-reflective process, ultimately performing end-to-end hardware design and verification. This methodology is evaluated on five open-source designs, achieving over 95% coverage with reduced verification time while demonstrating superior performance, adaptability, and configurability.
