( ESNUG 439 Item 2 ) -------------------------------------------- [02/15/05]

Subject: Questions for Moshe Gavrielov, CEO of Verisity


What possibly makes you believe that e will survive?  Saying that you have
an entrenched and loyal customer base is not sufficient.  DEC (Digital
Equipment Corporation) once had an entrenched and loyal customer base, too.

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

Moshe Gavrielov - How does "e" fit into the picture as System Verilog 
gains momentum?  Also, how soon until Cadence integrates "e" into NC-Sim?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

For Verisity/Cadence, what are the future plans because of the Cadence
purchase?  What will happen to "e"?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

How quickly will SPECMan's functionality & 'e' be integrated into 
Cadence's simulation "engine" to provide integrated capability, better 
performance, and obviously new features exclusive to Cadence's Verilog 
and VHDL users?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

Q1)  Are you going to support design with embedded OVL ?
Q2)  Can Verisity support PSL, SVA, or both?
Q3)  Can Verisity interoperate with SystemC as testbench with
     assertion in 'e'?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

What is the future license model for Specman and eVC's as a response to 
the Synopsys NTB move, which eliminates the license costs for Vera?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

I would ask Moshe what he believes the future of "e" is.

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

A question for Ted Vucurevich -- What is the road map for the Axis tools
in Cadence?  Will their account be simply replaced by Cadence Palladium?

         ----    ----    ----    ----    ----    ----   ----

What's going to happen the the Axis-Verisity Xtreme emulation technology?
