In this paper we introduce “clipping,” a new method of syntactic approximation which is motivated by and works in conjunction with a sound and decidable denotational model for...
Model checking is increasingly popular for hardware and, more recently, software verification. In this paper we describe two different approaches to extend the benefits of model ...

Directed model checking algorithms focus computation resources in the error-prone areas of concurrent systems. The algorithms depend on some empirical analysis to report their per...
Abstract-Our strategy for automatic generation of functional vectors is based on exercising selected paths in the given hardware description language (HDL) model. The HDL model des...
