Soc Verification concepts (Literature, Tools and Concepts)

Dear all,

I am trying to find some topics or tools or skills to learn about SoC Verification concepts. Can someone please guide me regarding this. However, I am going through VHDL and C++ programming languages nowadays. But still, I need hints and suggestions from others.

- Important tools?

- Intel tools ?

- Basic and must-know concept topics.

- Important websites and tutorials

Looking forward to your answers. I will be really grateful.

BR
