RE: [sv-ac] call to vote on 1503

Hi Lisa, Bassam,

One more question about 1503: Why "property inst" and "property decl"
are defined in 36.48 "Multiclock sequence expression"? This was not
introduced by 1503 but existed in the LRM already.

Thanks,
Dmitry

I vote yes with the following friendly amendments:

38.3.2 Obtaining static assertion information, Page 7
I think that "Sequence Instance" should be "Sequence instance", and
"Property Instance" should be "Property instance". Also, why
"ImmediateAssert" is written as one word (this is the original text). It
is not defined anywhere, there is vpiImmediateAssert.

38.4.2, Page 8.

It is written:
- cbAssertionSuccess. An assertion attempt reaches a success state. For
property or sequence instances, success is a match.
- cbAssertionFailure. An assertion attempt fails to reach a success
state. For property or sequence instances, failure is no match.

The second sentence is ambiguous: does cbAssertionFailure relate to each
time point where the sequence does not match or to the time point where
it is detected that the sequence cannot be matched? I think that the
latter is correct. Also it is better to talk about the success state of
a property instead of the match.

I would formulate it as:
- cbAssertionSuccess. An assertion attempt or a property instance
reaches a success state. For sequence instances, success is a match.
- cbAssertionFailure. An assertion attempt or a property fails to reach
a success state, or sequence instance fails to match.

Thanks,
Dmitry

Hi Folks:

This is the call to vote on the proposal for Mantis 1503.

I am a bit late in sending this as I didn't see Lisa's mail
until this morning.

I am going ahead with the vote.  If anyone objects to this,
simply vote no with the rationale that the ballot period was
a bit too short.

The proposal on Mantis is

   1503_vpi_071120.pdf

Please vote if you are eligible.  See the details below.

J.H.
