Headquartered in Aachen and emerging from stealth mode in May, MachineWare is set to revolutionize semiconductor design with its high-speed functional RISC-V simulator, SIM-V. SIM-V, the company's flagship product, combines unprecedented simulation performance with exceptional customizability for applications ranging from the tiniest embedded devices to warehouse-scale supercomputers. SIM-V enables software developers to test full software stacks - including firmware, operating system kernel and complex user-space applications, such as (Java-) virtual machines or rich graphical environments - in real time.

Today's hardware-software systems are becoming increasingly complex, with even tiny edge systems executing millions of lines of code. SIM-V gives software developers the ability to interactively debug even the most complex designs without the need for physical hardware, even before first prototypes are available. Integrating SIM-V into continuous integration systems minimizes test execution times, saves compute resources and allows developers to continue their work sooner.
