Formal Verification: An Essential Toolkit for Modern VLSI Design

Formal Verification: An Essential Toolkit for Modern VLSI Design presents practical approaches for design and validation, with hands-on advice for working engineers integrating these techniques into their work. Building on a basic knowledge of System Verilog, this book demystifies FV and presents the practical applications that are bringing it into mainstream design and validation processes at Intel and other companies. The text prepares readers to effectively introduce FV in their organization and deploy FV techniques to increase design and validation productivity. Presents formal verification algorithms allowing users to gain full coverage without exhaustive simulationProvides discussion of formal verification tools and how they differ from simulation toolsTeaches users how to glean insights into how models work to find initial bugs Presents valuable information from an Intel insider who shares his hard-won knowledge and solutions to complex design problems INDICE: Formal Verification: From Dreams To RealityBasic FV AlgorithmsIntroduction to System Verilog AssertionsFormal Property VerificationEffective FPV For Design ExerciseEffective FPV to Verify RTL DesignsFPV in Restricted DomainsState-Matching Formal Equivalence VerificationFalse Positives in Formal VerificationYour New FV-Aware Lifestyle
