We show that traversing the linear arrangement induced by the formula's predicates, rather than the DPLL(T) method of traversing the Boolean space, may have an advantage when the number of variables is smaller than the number of predicates (as it is indeed the case in the standard SMT-Lib benchmarks). We then continue by showing a branching heuristic that is based on approximating T-implications, based on a geometric analysis. We achieve modest improvement in run time comparing to the commonly used heuristic used by competitive solvers.","PeriodicalId":399042,"journal":{"name":"2008 Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132810419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The method is compositional: a subroutine needs to be analyzed once, rather than at each call site. The method is being mechanized in the ACL2 theorem prover, and we discuss initial results demonstrating its applicability.","PeriodicalId":399042,"journal":{"name":"2008 Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127511300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Verifying such systems is challenging, and users often get little traction when applying model checking to decide full or partial end-to-end correctness of such designs. Interestingly, a subclass of these systems can be proven correct by reasoning only about a small number of the memory entries at a limited number of time points. In this paper, we leverage this fact to abstract certain memories in a sound way, and we demonstrate how our memory abstraction coupled with an abstraction refinement algorithm can be used to prove correctness properties for three challenging designs from industry and academia. Key features of our approach are that we operate on standard safety property verification problems, that we proceed completely automatically without any need for abstraction hints, that we can use any bit-level model checker as a back-end decision procedure, and that our algorithms fit seamlessly into a standard transformational verification paradigm.","PeriodicalId":399042,"journal":{"name":"2008 Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131616154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It works by identifying and eliminating dependent state elements which may be expressed as functions of other registers. For scalability, we rely exclusively on SAT- based analysis in this process. To enable optimal identification of all dependent state elements, we integrate an inductive invariant generation framework. We introduce numerous techniques to heuristically enhance the reduction potential of our method, and experiments confirm that our approach is scalable and is able to reduce state element count by 12% on average in large industrial designs, even after other aggressive optimizations such as min- register retiming have been applied. The method is effective in simplifying later verification efforts.","PeriodicalId":399042,"journal":{"name":"2008 Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125193189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A temporal logic formula does not control the behavior of the atomic propositions, it merely observes their behavior. Local variables are a twist on this approach, in which the user can declare variables local to the formula and control their behavior from within the formula itself. Local variables were introduced in 2002, and a formal semantics was given to them in the context of SVA, the assertion language of SystemVerilog, in 2004. That semantics suffers from several drawbacks. In particular, it breaks distributivity of the operators corresponding to intersection and union. In this paper we present a formal semantics for local variables that solves that problem and others, and compare it to the previous solution.","PeriodicalId":399042,"journal":{"name":"2008 Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115465099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
