We propose a word level, bounded model checking (BMC) algorithm based on translation into the effectively propositional fragment (EPR) of firstorder logic. This approach to BMC al...

The quality of formal specifications and the circuits they are written for can be evaluated through checks such as vacuity and coverage. Both checks involve mutations to the specif...
The paper explores several ways to improve the speed and capacity of combinational equivalence checking based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT). State-of-the-art methods use simulat...

Abstract— In bounded model checking (BMC)-based verification flows lack of reachability constraints often leads to false negatives. At present, it is daily practice of a veri...

Feature sizes in VLSI circuits are steadily shrinking. This results in increasing susceptibility to soft errors, e.g. due to environmental radiation. Precautions against soft error...
