Method and system for real-time representation of simulation performance
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230315936A1) describes a method for representing functional simulation performance in real-time using Graphical User Interface (GUI) elements. The method involves several steps. First, for each simulation in a verification environment, the method determines a simulation performance value for each simulation interval based on the time it takes to complete the interval. The average simulation performance value is then calculated in real-time by summing the performance values of completed intervals. The method also estimates the additional time required to complete the remaining simulation intervals using the average performance value. A special log file is updated with a set of simulation parameters, including the performance value, average performance value, and additional time required.
The method also includes identifying the lowest simulation performance value from the completed intervals and including it in the set of simulation parameters. Additionally, the method involves rendering GUI elements based on the simulation parameters in real-time. The simulations are monitored through an external script, which identifies new simulation timestamps and associates them with the current wall clock timestamp.
To determine the simulation performance value for each interval, the method calculates the difference between the current and previous wall clock timestamps and simulation timestamps. The simulation interval is divided by the wall clock time to obtain the performance value. The average simulation performance value is calculated by summing the wall clock time for completed intervals and dividing it by the sum of completed intervals.
The method also includes reporting simulation time advancement issues to the user based on the special log file. This is done by monitoring the last recorded simulation timestamp and causing a timeout of the external script if the timestamp remains unchanged for a predefined threshold time.
In addition to the method, the patent also describes a GUI for representing functional simulation performance in real-time. The GUI updates the special log file with simulation parameters and renders GUI elements based on the parameters. It can also receive the simulation parameters in real-time and report simulation time advancement issues to the user.
Overall, this patent presents a method, GUI, and system for representing functional simulation performance in real-time using GUI elements. The method allows for the calculation of performance values, estimation of remaining time, and reporting of simulation issues. The GUI provides real-time visualization of simulation parameters, and the system includes a processor and memory to execute the method.
