The Functional Simulation Suite is a VLSI & MATLAB project that combines Coverage report and Result logger, built with Simulation scripts. The project follows a clean, modular design flow where specification, implementation, and verification stay separated, making it easy to test, extend, and present. It showcases practical VLSI and simulation techniques while producing a working, demo-ready design.
Manual and traditional approaches to this design task are slow, error-prone, and difficult to verify. Without a structured VLSI or simulation approach built on Result logger and Simulation scripts, designers cannot model, implement, and validate complex circuits or algorithms reliably.
This project applies VLSI and simulation techniques through Coverage report, orchestrated with Simulation scripts and Result logger. The flow is designed for correctness and clarity, with clear implementation, verification, and evaluation stages. It produces consistent, reusable results and can be adapted to related design tasks with minimal changes.

The project is layered: the specification layer defines the design through Coverage report; the implementation layer builds it with Simulation scripts and Result logger; and the verification layer validates and presents results via Test vectors. Shared test, analysis, and reporting modules support all layers, keeping the design robust and easy to extend.
