Description

The waveform viewer is one of the most important tools in a hardware engineer’s toolbox. It is the main interface used to track down design bugs found by simulation or formal verification. In this paper, we present Surfer, a modern waveform viewer designed to integrate with the broader hardware design ecosystem. It supports translation from bit vectors to semantically meaningful values, integration with simulation and verification tools, and lays the groundwork for interactive simulation in the open-source ecosystem.
