Formal Verification of a Superscalar Execution Unit
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...

Formal Verification of Out-of-Order Execution Using Incremental Flushing
We present a two-part approach for verifying out-of-order execution. First, the complexity of out-of-order issue and scheduling is handled by creating der abstraction of the out-of...

Automatic Modeling and Validation of Pipeline Specifications Driven by an Architecture Description Language
Verification is one of the most complex and expensive tasks in the current Systems-on-Chip (SOC) design process. Many existing approaches employ a bottom-up approach to pipeline v...

Algebraic Models of Correctness for Microprocessors
In this paper we present a method of describing microprocessors at different levels of temporal and data abstraction. We consider microprogrammed, pipelined and superscalar proces...
