Tarek Established Distributor Channel with DSM Silicon Solutions

Cupertino, Calif.-August 28, 2006-Tarek Verification Systems, LLC. (Tarek) has signed an agreement with DSM Silicon Solutions, LLC. (DSM) for distributing Tarek's products, Draco and PCIE-VR, in the central region of the USA.

Draco is a complete ASIC verification solution that consists of a set of automation tools. With Draco, verification engineers are dedicated 90% of their time working on assertion models because most of the traditional verification tasks, such as coding for verification environment and test cases, are automated.

PCIE-VR is a VIP for PCI Express. It is not only fully models and monitors PCI Express functionality, timing, and protocols but also generates realistic sophisticated concurrent-test scenarios automatically in all three layers. For the transaction layer verification, PCIE-VR features a multi-threaded traffic generator that greatly simplifies the verification of concurrent access to the designs. For the data link and physical layers, PCIE-VR features powerful randomized state transition loop mechanisms that exhaustively verify the flow control protocol and state machines.

"We are very excited about having Tarek as a business partner", states Michael Walton, the President of DSM, "All of our customers, both large and small, will benefit from the time-to-market improvements that the Tarek's verification products provide."

"Draco has been proven to provide the best ratio of ASIC verification engineers to designers, which is 1:2.5, instead of the traditional 2:1. ", says Tao Chen, VP of Engineering at Tarek, "With Michael's extensive expertise in sales, more customers will benefit from the use of Draco."
