See: http://standards.ieee.org/board/pat/pat-slideset.ppt - Review of ballot issues. The Ballot Comments from the March 2009 P1800 Ballot can be found at: http://www.eda-twiki.org/cgi-bin/view.cgi/P1800/P1800BallotReviewFeedback The goal is to look over the ballot feedback for SV-AC, and report back to the P1800 by 4/16 as to how long SV-AC thinks they require to address the feedback. The current target is May 14, 2009. Ballot issue discussion and effort estimation: 82 – Mantis 2646: Assumption in deferred assertion example should be made explicit There is no need to make changes in the LRM text since the text explicitly mentions the execution in the Active region. Ed moves. Erik seconds. Motion passed 9y/0a/0n. 83 - Mantis 2647: Clarification about clock glitches in concurrent assertions Ed: Add a clarification that the tool is not required to check the clock glitches. Effort estimation: 3 days. 84 - Mantis 2656: Clarify difference of $global_clock handling in simulation and formal verification Ed: Provide an example with multiple clocks Effort estimation: 2 weeks 85 - Mantis 2657: Clarify notion of sequence Ed: The word “specifies” is appropriate in the 2nd sentence and it is equivalent to saying “denotes”. The last sentence then refers to the dynamic behavior of SV sequences in terms of the denoted set of linear sequences, namely, when an SV sequence has a match (on a trace containing a finite interval of clock ticks). Doron: Leave the text unchanged. John seconds. Motion passed 9y/0a/0n. 86 - Mantis 2648: Need an example of cyclic dependencies between sequences As Shalom mentioned there already is an example of cyclic dependence between sequences on page 319. John: It is easy to change the example to pass one sequence as an argument to the other. Dmitry: But the intent will be less clear. John: Leave the text unchanged. Ed seconds. Motion passed 9y/0a/0n. 87 - Mantis 2649: sequence_actual_arg is used to represent the default argument Ed: There is no added value in introducing a new non-terminal identical to sequence_actual_arg. John: The current BNF is consistent with that one for functions and tasks. John: Leave the text unchanged. Doron seconds Motion passed 9y/0a/0n. 88 - Mantis 2658: Default values for untyped formals Ed: The LRM does not disallow it. Effort estimation: 3 days. 89 - Mantis 2612: `true should have a backtick in a sequence example Trivial editorial issue. Effort estimation: ˝ day. 90 - Mantis 2650: Ambiguity in a sequence repetition [*0] definition John, Ed, Dmitry: The text is correct. Probably some minor clarification is needed. We didn’t have time to elaborate a resolution, the discussion is postponed to the next meeting. 91 - Mantis 2652: Future value functions need clarification Discussion postponed to the next meeting. 92 - Mantis 2653: Sequence match not shown in timing diagram Discussion postponed to the next meeting. 93 - Mantis 2654: Error in an example of throughout operator Discussion postponed to the next meeting. 94 - Mantis 2655: Backward compatibility issue with the clocking specification Dmitry: The intent is not clear, there is no backward compatibility issue in the specified subclause (16.10 Local variables). Tapan: The system function $sampled is intended. Dmitry: The deprecation message appears in C.2.2. Doron: Leave the text unchanged. John seconds. Motion passed 9y/0a/0n. 95 - Mantis 2659: Backward compatibility issue with sequence property. Doron: Add a note about the lack of backward compatibility. Effort estimation: 1 day. 96 - Mantis 2660: Add indices to expressions Discussion postponed to the next meeting. 97 - Mantis 2478: Clock flow subclause is not consistent with multiclocked property definition Effort estimation: ˝ day. 98 - Mantis 2661: "Syntax 16-19" is in blue. Discussion postponed to the next meeting. 99 - Mantis 2541: syntax errors - missing parenthesis Effort estimation: ˝ day. 100 – Mantis 2516: Another contradiction of existing text with 2398 needs to be fixed Effort estimation: ˝ day. 139 – Mantis 2496: non_port_program_item should contain assertion_item Effort estimation: ˝ day. - Opens. Next meeting will take place 2009-04-16 16:00 UTC (09:00 PDT) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Intel Israel (74) Limited This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential material for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
