Are You Ready for Spec-Driven Verification?

Are You Ready for Spec-Driven Verification?
by Bernard Murphy on 05-26-2026 at 6:00 am

Many specs with bugs

Quick recap: verification is checking that your implementation of a design matches the in-house design/test specification. In contrast, validation means checking that the implementation matches design intent as defined by a customer specification, use cases, etc. Let’s focus on verification; for simplicity I’ll use “design… Read More

Shelly Henry MooresLabAI

Tell us a little bit about yourself and your company.

I’m Shelly Henry, CEO and co-founder of MooresLabAI. After two decades of building chips for Xbox, HoloLens, and Azure, I reached a point where I knew the industry needed a reset. So I teamed up with fellow engineers, Shashank Chaurasia and Sirish Munipalli to create MooresLabAI—a… Read More


We Need to Turn Specs into Oracles for Agentic Verification

We Need to Turn Specs into Oracles for Agentic Verification
by Bernard Murphy on 12-03-2025 at 6:00 am

Spec as an oracle min

The natural language understanding now possible in LLMs has raised interest in using specs as a direct reference for test generation, to eliminate need for intermediate and fallible human translation. Sadly, specs today are not an infallible source of truth for multiple reasons. I am grateful to Shelly Henry (CEO of MooresLab)… Read More


Moores Lab(AI): Agentic AI and the New Era of Semiconductor Design

Moores Lab(AI): Agentic AI and the New Era of Semiconductor Design
by Kalar Rajendiran on 10-08-2025 at 10:00 am

Silicon Engineering at the Speed of AI

For decades, chip design has been a delicate balance of creativity and drudgery. Architects craft detailed specifications, engineers read those documents line by line, and teams write and debug thousands of lines of Verilog and UVM code. Verification alone can consume up to 35 percent of a project’s cost and add many months to … Read More
