Abstract
As the complexity of System-on-Chip (SoC) designs grows, the shift-left paradigm necessitates the rapid development of high-fidelity reference models (typically written in SystemC) for early architecture exploration and verification. While Large Language Models (LLMs) show promise in code generation, their application to hardware modeling faces unique challenges: (1) Rigid, static workflows fail to adapt to varying design complexity, causing inefficiency; (2) Context window overflow in multi-turn interactions leads to catastrophic forgetting of critical specifications; and (3) the Coupled Validation Failure problem--where generated Testbenches (TBs) incorrectly validate flawed models due to correlated hallucinations--severely undermines reliability. To address these limitations, we introduce RefEvo, a dynamic multi-agent framework designed for agile and reliable reference modeling. RefEvo features three key innovations: (1) A Dynamic D
