For the breakfast session, Ken will be talking about how prototypes can bring HW and SW together earlier to shorten verification schedules for the complete HW+SW product. Should be a great session for all the early risers! I agree we've got a lot of work to do to sort out the terminology associated with prototyping and hardware-assisted verification. Hmmm...perhaps an idea for a new blog post! Harry,

Is this part of what you'll be covering in your <a href="http://www.dvcon.org/html/breakfast.html" rel="nofollow">Wed AM breakfast session</a>? One aspect that has always caused me some confusion is terminology. Accelerator. Emulator. Prototype. Virtual prototype. Virtual Platform. And some technologies seem to handle more than one purpose. Perhaps it would be worthwhile to clarify these so we at least have a common vocabulary. Cheers, Harry Hi Tom,
