Computer-readable recording medium storing verification support program, verification support apparatus, and verification support method

A verification support apparatus executing a simulation controlling a communication between a first hardware model in communication with a bus model and adapted to the same first specifications as the bus model, and a second hardware model in communication with the bus model and adapted to second specifications differing from those of the bus model, the apparatus comprising:

• a reception unit that receives data based on the second specifications from the second hardware model;
• a conversion unit that, based on the first specifications, converts the data received by the reception unit into data adapted to the first specifications;
• and
• a transmission unit that transmits the data converted by the conversion unit, via the bus model, to a hardware model which is a transmission destination.

A verification support method executed by a computer executing a simulation controlling a communication between a first hardware model in communication with a bus model and adapted to the same first specifications as the bus model, and a second hardware model in communication with the bus model and adapted to second specifications differing from those of the bus model, the method comprising:

• receiving data based on the second specifications from the second hardware model;
• converting the data received by the receiving procedure into data adapted to the first specifications based on the first specifications;
• and
• transmitting the data converted by the converting procedure to a hardware model which is a transmission destination via the bus model.
