Power grid verification in modern integrated circuits is an integral part of early system design where adjustments can be most easily incorporated. In this work, we describe an ea...
Effective system verification requires good specifications. The lack of sufficient specifications can lead to misses of critical bugs, design re-spins, and time-to-market slips. I...
This paper describes a novel technique called Embedded Test-bench Control (ETC), extensively used in the verification of Tensilica’s latest configurable processor. Conventional ...
ACL2 was used to prove properties of two simplification procedures. The procedures differ in complexity but solve the same programming problem that arises in the context of a reso...
State-based model checking methods comprise computing and storing reachable states, while stateless model checking methods directly reason about reachable paths using decision proc...
