We report on the formal verification of the floating point unit used in the VAMP processor. The FPU is fully IEEE compliant, and supports denormals and exceptions in hardware. The ...
Functional validation is a major bottleneck in microprocessor design methodology. Simulation is the widely used method for functional validation using billions of random and biase...
Burch and Dill [3] described an automatic method for verifying a pipelined processor against its instruction setarchitecture(ISA). We describethree techniquesfor improving this me...
Abstract. Many modern systems are designed as a set of interconnected reactive subsystems. The subsystem verification task is to verify an implementation of the subsystem against t...
Sequential consistency is the archetypal correctness condition for the memory protocols of shared-memory multiprocessors. Typically, such protocols are parameterized by the number ...
