Systemverilog provides set of system tasks to help manage coverage data collection as shown below

• $set_coverage_db_name(name) : sets the filename of the coverage database into which coverage
• information is saved at the end of a simulation run.
• $load_coverage_db(name) :loads from the given filename the cumulative coverage information for all coverage group types.
• $get_coverage() :returns as a real number in the range of 0 to 100 the overall coverage of all coverage group types. This number is computed as described above.
