Hardware Accelerated Functional Verification
Zachariášová, Marcela ; Kotásek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kajan, Michal (advisor)
Funkční verifikace je jednou z nejrozšířenějších technik ověřování korektnosti hardwarových systémů podle jejich specifikace. S nárůstem složitosti současných systémů se zvyšují i časové požadavky kladené na funkční verifikaci, a proto je důležité hledat nové techniky urychlení tohoto procesu. Teoretická část této práce popisuje základní principy různých verifikačních technik, jako jsou simulace a testování, funkční verifikace, jakož i formální analýzy a verifikace. Následuje popis tvorby verifikačních prostředí nad hardwarovými komponentami v jazyce SystemVerilog. Část věnující se analýze popisuje požadavky kladené na systém pro akceleraci funkční verifikace, z nichž nejdůležitější jsou možnost jednoduchého spuštění akcelerované verze verifikace a časová ekvivalence akcelerovaného a neakcelerovaného běhu verifikace. Práce dále představuje návrh verifikačního rámce používajícího pro akceleraci běhů verifikace technologii programovatelných hradlových polí se zachováním možnosti spuštění běhu verifikace v uživatelsky přívětivém ladicím prostředí simulátoru. Dle experimentů provedených na prototypové implementaci je dosažené zrychlení úměrné počtu ověřovaných transakcí a komplexnosti verifikovaného systému, přičemž nejvyšší zrychlení dosažené v sadě experimentů je více než 130násobné.

Application of Evolutionary Algorithm in Creation of Regression Tests
Belešová, Michaela ; Kajan, Michal (referee) ; Zachariášová, Marcela (advisor)
This master thesis deals with application of an evolutionary algorithm in the creation of regression tests. In the first section, description of functional verification, verification methodology, regression tests and evolutionary algorithms is provided. In the following section, the evolutionary algorithm, the purpose of which is to achieve reduction of the number of test vectors obtained in the process of functional verification, is proposed. Afterwards, the proposed algorithm is implemented and a set of experiments is evaluated. The results are discussed.

Functional Verification of Robotic System Using UVM
Krajčír, Stanislav ; Čekan, Ondřej (referee) ; Zachariášová, Marcela (advisor)
One of the currently most used approaches for verification of hardware systems is functional verification. This master thesis describes design and implementation of a verification environment using UVM (Universal Verification Methodology) methodology for verifying the correctness of the robot controller in order to eliminate functional errors and faults of its implementation. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the basic information about functional verification, methodologies for creating verification environments, the SystemVerilog language and fault tolerance methodologies. The next part of thesis focuses on the design of the verification environment, its implementation and the creation of tests used to verify the correctness of the robot controller. Results of verification are discussed and evaluated in the conclusion of this work.

Design of hardware cipher module
Bayer, Tomáš ; Stančík, Peter (referee) ; Sobotka, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma’s thesis discourses the cryptographic systems and ciphers, whose function, usage and practical implementation are analysed. In the first chapter basic cryptographic terms, symmetric and asymetric cryptographic algorithms and are mentioned. Also usage and reliability are analysed. Following chapters mention substitution, transposition, block and stream ciphers, which are elementary for most cryptographic algorithms. There are also mentioned the modes, which the ciphers work in. In the fourth chapter are described the principles of some chosen cryptographic algorithms. The objective is to make clear the essence of the algorithms’ behavior. When describing some more difficult algorithms the block scheme is added. At the end of each algorithm’s description the example of practical usage is written. The chapter no. five discusses the hardware implementation. Hardware and software implementation is compared from the practical point of view. Several design instruments are described and different hardware design programming languages with their progress, advantages and disadvantages are mentioned. Chapter six discourses the hardware implementation design of chosen ciphers. Concretely the design of stream cipher with pseudo-random sequence generator is designed in VHDL and also in Matlab. As the second design was chosen the block cipher GOST, which was designed in VHDL too. Both designs were tested and verified and then the results were summarized.
