The IP Quality Pillar discusses and creates standards that ease the integration of IP cores into Systems-on-Chip (SoCs). The well adopted VSIA Quality IP (QIP) metric includes quality attributes for soft, hard and verification IP and also provides attributes for vendor qualification. The metric also provides a common language allowing IP vendors and integrators to communicate efficiently and aggressively reduce time spent in the IP purchase decision and in IP integration efforts.
In addition to setting up the basis for measuring a core's characteristics against an industry-approved list of attributes, the standard provides a view of the IP vendor's general approach to IP development. This, in turn, levels the playing field for vendors and allows an integrator to evaluate similar cores from competing vendors.
