We describe IODINE, a tool to automatically extract likely design properties using dynamic analysis. A practical bottleneck in the formal verification of hardware designs is the n...
Creating a new FPGA is a challenging undertaking because of the significant effort that must be spent on circuit design, layout and verification. It currently takes approximately ...
Functional verification is widely acknowledged as the bottleneck in the hardware design cycle. This paper addresses one of the main challenges of simulation based verification (or...
This paper addresses issues involved when an architect explore alternative designs including non-functional requirements; in our approach, non-functional requirements are expresse...
