Each design starts with a set of specifications—measurements and goals—that need to be achieved by the chip. In a specification-driven environment, these measurements and goals are captured in a central location where the design response can be checked against them anytime during the design process. A specification-driven environment helps to manage late design changes that may require quick re-creation of all of the measurements and re-simulation of the modified design.
