This paper describes the first application of the Genevieve test generation methodology. The Genevieve approach uses semi-formal techniques derived from "model-checking"...
We investigate the complexity of preorder checking when the specification is a flat finite-state system whereas the implementation is either a non-flat finite-state system or a st...
software in the form of abstract classes; and the specification elements of the language can also be used in concrete classes to document the implementations and their development ...
A central problem in functional verification is to check that a circuit block is producing correct outputs while enforcing that the environment is providing legal inputs. To attac...
We propose a definition of hierarchical heterogeneous formal specifications, where each module is specified according to its own homogeneous logic. We focus on the specification st...
