DESCRIPTION:The growing complexity of RISC-V processors\, driven by rapidly
  expanding ISA extensions and sophisticated microarchitectures\, has made 
 functional verification a dominant bottleneck. Contemporary CPU verificati
 on commonly relies on RTL co-simulation against a software reference model
 \, but on hardware-assisted simulation platforms (e.g.\, FPGAs) this workf
 low is fundamentally limited by high-volume communication between the acce
 lerated RTL and the host-executed reference\, preventing verification thro
 ughput from scaling. This paper addresses this by eliminating the RTL-host
  interaction bottleneck and proposing a Synthesizable Verification Methodo
 logy (SVM). We re-architect a RISC-V reference model as synthesizable hard
 ware and deploy it alongside the design under test on the same acceleratio
 n platform\, enabling fully hardware-based co-simulation at near-native sp
 eeds (60 MHz on FPGAs) while preserving reference-model checking and debug
  observability.
