When should an architectural reference model execute an instruction? How do we synchronize this execution with that going on in the design under verification (DUV)? What we need is some sort of throttle control, but we are challenged by the fact that an architectural reference model, and indeed all of FSS, is to remain ignorant of the implementation details of the DUV.
