Hi John,

Std?
What aspects do you mean, are you thinking of the connect module insertion ?

scheduling.
Absolutely, no "analog" scheduling is required indeed, just event-based
steps.

If a mixed-signal(real-value) verification needs custom resolution with
powerful datatypes
and the user is not supplied with these features, a fast, but evtl.
meaningless
simulation does not help very much.
The simulation must be skipped (which is even faster ;)
and certain aspects will stay unverified.
