Abstract
This thesis was developed while working at Barcelona Supercomputing Center, a research center specialized in High Performance Computing and investigation in many fields, such as cloud computing, bioinformatics, material science and more. Taking part to European Processor Initiative (EPI) project, the whole thesis aims to perform the verification process on a Vector Processing Unit (VPU). The implemented Vector Processing Unit is based on the RISC-V V-Extension, which is a set of specifications defining the Instructions Set Architecture (ISA) of a vector core. The V-Extension is currently on develop by the RISC-V foundation. This manuscript will refer to the versions 0.7.1. The first chapter consist of an introduction of the needed concepts and of the context in which this thesis is been developed.
Then, in the second chapter, all the techniques used to verify functionally and formally this VPU are discussed
