A Framework for Verifying Bit-Level Pipelined Machines Based on Automated Deduction and Decision Procedures
We describe an approach to verifying bit-level pipelined machine models using a combination of deductive reasoning and decision procedures. While theorem proving systems such as AC...

Superblock formation using static program analysis
Compile-time code transformations which expose instruction-level parallelism (ILP) typically take into account the constraints imposed by all execution scenarios in the program. H...
