Abstract :
A collaborative scheme for verifying classified properties of a design is proposed. These properties are classified for three verification techniques, i.e. module logic simulation, BDD (binary decision diagram) based model checking and CDFG (control data flow graph) matching. The cooperative process is performed on a refined model from CDFG structure and three interactive methods are employed to complete the verification. The optimization techniques, BDD variables reordering and property grouping are discussed and examined. This collaborative scheme is implemented on the benchmarks ITC99, which demonstrates its validity and practicality.
