Mining SoC Message Flows with Attention Model. (arXiv:2209.07929v1 [cs.AI])

High-quality system-level message flow specifications are necessary for
comprehensive validation of system-on-chip (SoC) designs. However, manual
development and maintenance of such specifications are daunting tasks. We
propose a disruptive method that utilizes deep sequence modeling with the
attention mechanism to infer accurate flow specifications from SoC
communication traces. The proposed method can overcome the inherent complexity
of SoC traces induced by the concurrent executions of SoC designs that existing
mining tools often find extremely challenging. We conduct experiments on five …
