SVA with opensource EDA tools - lint, simulator and IPs

During a recent conversation with a PhD student in the USA, our team highlighted some of our team's recent work in promoting opensource EDA tools for SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA). Below is an excerpt from that conversation for wider audience.

For opensource SVA tools, Verilator does have some support. We have released 


SVA for APB - running in Verilator: 

We presented this work at LatchUp 2023 event at Santa Barbara: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMscbHq1vd8 

We also have developed an opensource linter for SV, SVA, DPI etc. see: https://github.com/AsFigo/pyslint
