As microprocessor designs continue to evolve, many optimizations reach a point of diminishing returns. We introduce HLS, a hybrid processor simulator which uses statistical models...
Compositional model checking is used to verify a processor microarchitecture containing most of the features of a modern microprocessor, including branch prediction, speculative ex...
—In this paper we describe a practical methodology to formally verify highly optimized, industrial multipliers. We a multiplier description language which abstracts from low-leve...

Translation validation is a technique for checking that, after an optimization has run, the input and output of the optimization are equivalent. Traditionally, translation validat...
