In this paper we describe a methodology for the formal verification of a DSP chip using the HOL theorem prover. We used an iterative method to specify both the behavioral and stru...
- Functional verification of the new generation microprocessor developed by SGS-THOMSON Microelectronics makes extensive use of advanced technologies. This paper presents a global ...
We report on the formal verification of the floating point unit used in the VAMP processor. The FPU is fully IEEE compliant, and supports denormals and exceptions in hardware. The ...
Abstract. Many modern systems are designed as a set of interconnected reactive subsystems. The subsystem verification task is to verify an implementation of the subsystem against t...
Given the growth in application-specific processors, there is a strong need for a retargetable modeling framework that is capable of accurately capturing complex processor behavi...
