In the context of formal verification Bounded Model Checking (BMC) has shown to be very powerful for large industrial designs. BMC is used to check whether a circuit satisfies a...
Abstract—One of the ways that custom instruction set extensions can improve over software execution is through the use of hardware structures that have been optimized at the arit...
- Under manufacturing process variation, a path through a fault site is called longest for delay test if there exists a process condition under which the path has the maximum delay...

We introduce a framework for studying and solving a class of CSP formulations. The framework allows constraints to be expressed as linear and nonlinear equations, then compiles th...
