Presentation Script: Verilog Event Regions

Slide 1: Title Slide


Good [morning/afternoon/evening] everyone, today I will be presenting Verilog
Event Regions with Examples. This is a crucial concept in simulation, especially for
understanding how Verilog schedules and executes events.

Slide 2: Overview
In this presentation, we will explore:
✔ What are Verilog Event Regions?
✔ How scheduling of events happens in Verilog?
✔ The difference between Determinism and Non-Determinism in event execution.
✔ Some practical examples to clarify the concept.

Slide 3: Introduction
Verilog is a hardware description language (HDL) that models digital circuits. It
follows a discrete event execution model, meaning that events occur at specific

2/13
simulation times and get scheduled accordingly. The key challenge is handling
parallel execution, which is different from traditional programming languages.

Slide 4: Time Slot & Time Slot Regions


🔹 A Time Slot is a section of the event queue where all events share the same
timestamp.
🔹 Each time slot is further divided into regions, ensuring the correct order of
execution. The most important regions are:

Active Region

Inactive Region

Non-Blocking Assignments (NBA) Region

Postponed Region

Slide 5: Event & Event Queue


🔹 An event is an operation that modifies a variable, triggers a process, or
performs any scheduled action.
🔹 Events are managed using an event queue known as the stratified event
queue, which controls the order of execution.

Slide 6-7: Update Events


🔹 Update Events occur when an object’s value changes, causing dependent
operations to be scheduled.
🔹 Example: If x = 1; is assigned, it schedules an update event for to reflect
x
this change.

3/13
Slide 8: Verilog Regions in Block Diagram
Let’s now look at different event regions in Verilog and how they impact execution.

Slide 9: Active Region


✔ The Active Region contains events that execute at the current simulation time.
✔ These include:

Blocking assignments ( = )

Evaluation of the RHS of non-blocking assignments ( <= )

Continuous assignments ( assign statements)

Primitive input evaluations

Display system tasks like $display and $write ✔ Key Property: Events in
this region can execute in any order, leading to potential race conditions.

Slide 10: Inactive Region


✔ Inactive events execute after all active region events.
✔ These include explicit zero-delay assignments like #0 x = y; . ✔ They help
delay execution but do not guarantee a specific order.

Slide 11: Non-Blocking Assignment (NBA) Region


✔ A non-blocking assignment executes in two steps: 1️⃣ Sample the RHS values
(Active Region) 2️⃣ Update the LHS values (NBA Region) ✔ Key Benefit: It avoids
race conditions by ensuring the values update only after all active events complete.
✔ Example:

4/13
always @(posedge clk) begin
x <= 1'b0; // Step 1: RHS sampled
x <= 1'b1; // Step 2: LHS updated in NBA region
end

Slide 12: Postponed Region


✔ Used for monitoring tasks, like $strobe and $monitor . ✔ Executes after all
other events, capturing final variable values at the simulation time. ✔ Helps avoid
inconsistencies when debugging.

Slide 13: Determinism in Verilog


✔ In Verilog, deterministic behavior ensures that statements inside the same
begin-end block execute in order. ✔ Example:

always @(posedge clk) begin


x <= 1'b0; // Executes first
x <= 1'b1; // Executes second
end

✔ The second assignment overwrites the first due to ordered execution.

Slide 14: Non-Determinism in Verilog


✔ Statements in different always blocks can execute in any order. ✔ Example:

always @(posedge clk) begin


x = 1'b0;
y = x; // y may get 0 or 1 (depends on execution order)
end

always @(posedge clk) begin


x = 1'b1;

5/13
✔ Since x is updated in one block but read in another, the execution order is not
guaranteed, causing non-deterministic behavior.

Slides 15-20: Examples and Their Outputs


Now, let’s look at practical examples that demonstrate these concepts.

✔ Example 1: Demonstrates race conditions with blocking assignments.


✔ Example 2: Shows how NBA execution resolves timing issues.
✔ Example 3: Highlights non-determinism in multiple always blocks.

Slide 21: Conclusion


To summarize: ✔ Verilog follows a stratified event queue model for scheduling.
✔ The Active, Inactive, NBA, and Postponed Regions define execution order.
✔ Blocking ( = ) and Non-Blocking ( <= ) assignments behave differently.
✔ Deterministic execution ensures order within blocks, while non-determinism
can occur across blocks.

Presentation Speech: Verilog Event Regions

Slide 1: Title Slide


Good [morning/afternoon/evening] everyone. Today, I will be presenting Verilog Event
Regions with Examples.

In digital design, timing and event execution are crucial. How do we ensure signals are
updated correctly? How do Verilog simulators handle multiple parallel processes? The
answer lies in Verilog’s event regions and scheduling mechanisms. Let’s dive in.

6/13
Slide 2: Overview
In this presentation, we will explore:
✅ The concept of Verilog Event Regions
✅ How scheduling of events happens in Verilog
✅ Determinism vs. Non-Determinism in execution
✅ Some practical examples to clarify these concepts
By the end, you will have a clear understanding of Verilog’s execution model, helping you
write better and more reliable HDL code.

Slide 3: Introduction
Verilog is a hardware description language (HDL) designed for modeling digital circuits.
Unlike traditional programming languages that execute sequentially, Verilog follows a
discrete event execution model, meaning:

Events occur at specific simulation times.

Multiple events may be scheduled in the same time slot.

Events execute based on well-defined regions.

This event-driven model helps Verilog simulate hardware behavior accurately.

Slide 4: Time Slot & Time Slot Regions


Before we discuss event regions, let's understand what a time slot is.

🔹 A Time Slot is a section in the event queue where all events share the same timestamp.
🔹 To maintain order, Verilog subdivides time slots into regions, ensuring proper execution
sequencing. The most important regions are:

Active Region

Inactive Region

7/13
Non-Blocking Assignment (NBA) Region

Postponed Region

Each of these regions has a role in how Verilog processes events.

Slide 5: Event & Event Queue


🔹 An event is an action in Verilog, such as assigning a value, triggering an always block, or
printing output.
🔹 These events are stored in an event queue called the stratified event queue, which
ensures correct execution order.

Verilog follows a multi-region execution model to handle these events systematically.

Slide 6-7: Update Events


🔹 Update Events occur when an object’s value changes, which may trigger dependent
operations.
🔹 For example, if we assign , Verilog schedules an update event for .
x = 1; x

To prevent unexpected behaviors, Verilog controls how and when events execute using the
different event regions.

Slide 8: Verilog Regions in Block Diagram


Let’s now look at different event regions in Verilog and how they impact execution.

Slide 9: Active Region


The Active Region is where most events execute.

8/13
✅ This includes:
Blocking assignments ( = )

Right-hand side (RHS) evaluation of non-blocking assignments ( <= )

Continuous assignments ( assign )

Primitive input evaluations

System tasks like $display and $write

🛑 Key Point: Events in the active region execute in any order, which can lead to race
conditions.

Slide 10: Inactive Region


🔹 The Inactive Region processes zero-delay assignments like #0 x = y;
🔹 These assignments execute after all active region events but still at the same simulation
time.
🔹 Purpose? They help introduce slight execution delays without affecting the simulation
time itself.

This is useful when we want to schedule operations after primary assignments.

Slide 11: Non-Blocking Assignment (NBA) Region


🔹 Non-blocking assignments ( ) behave differently than blocking assignments.
<=
🔹 They execute in two phases:
1️⃣ Right-hand side (RHS) is evaluated in the Active Region
2️⃣ Left-hand side (LHS) is updated in the NBA Region
🛑 Why is this important?
It avoids race conditions by ensuring all assignments are evaluated before any updates
happen.

It is commonly used in flip-flop modeling to represent sequential logic.

9/13
✔ Example:

verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


x <= 1'b0; // RHS sampled
x <= 1'b1; // LHS updated in NBA region
end

Slide 12: Postponed Region


🔹 The Postponed Region is used for monitoring and debugging tasks.
🔹 Events in this region execute after everything else, ensuring values are final.
🔹 Example system tasks that run in this region:
$strobe

$monitor

This is extremely useful for debugging because it captures the final value of signals.

Slide 13: Determinism in Verilog


🔹 Deterministic behavior means that operations within a begin-end block execute in the
order they appear.
🔹 Example:
verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


x <= 1'b0; // Executes first
x <= 1'b1; // Executes second
end

🔹 The second assignment overwrites the first because the order is preserved.

10/13
Slide 14: Non-Determinism in Verilog
🔹 When multiple always blocks execute simultaneously, their execution order is not
guaranteed.
🔹 Example:
verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


x = 1'b0;
y = x; // y may get 0 or 1 (depends on execution order)
end

always @(posedge clk) begin


x = 1'b1;
end

🛑 Issue: y can get 0 or 1, depending on which always block executes first. This is a classic
race condition.

Slides 15-20: Practical Examples & Execution Order


Now, let’s look at practical examples to solidify our understanding.

Example 1: Race Condition in Blocking Assignments


verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


a = 1;
b = a;
end

✔ b should get a ’s value, but since all events in the Active Region execute in any order, b
might receive the old value.
🛑 Problem? Unpredictable behavior.

11/13
Example 2: Resolving the Race with NBA
verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


a <= 1;
b <= a;
end

✔ Since NBA executes in two steps, b receives a ’s updated value, eliminating the race.

Example 3: Multiple Always Blocks – Non-Determinism


verilog

always @(posedge clk) begin


x = 1;
end

always @(posedge clk) begin


y = x;
end

🛑 Since these execute independently, the order is undefined, leading to random results.

Slide 21: Conclusion


To summarize:
✅ Verilog follows a stratified event queue model for execution.
✅ The Active, Inactive, NBA, and Postponed Regions define execution order.
✅ Blocking ( ) and Non-Blocking ( ) assignments behave differently.
= <=
✅ Deterministic execution ensures predictable behavior within blocks.
✅ Non-determinism occurs when multiple always blocks interact.

12/13
Understanding Verilog event scheduling is crucial for avoiding race conditions and ensuring
correct simulation behavior.
