Formal verification is being deployed more often and in more places in chip designs as the number of possible interactions grows, and as those chips are used in more critical applications. In the past ...

First-time chip success rates are dropping, primarily due to increased complexity and attempts to cut costs. That means management must take a close look at their verification strategies to determine ...

Verifying the security of processors has become an essential step in the design of modern electronic systems. Users want to be sure that their consumer devices can’t be hacked, and that their personal ...

Recent work directed by professors Ronghui Gu and Jason Nieh introduced a new tool, Spoq, that significantly reduces the complex efforts people must use to verify real-world software and makes it ...

In August 2023, the EEOC reached its first AI-bias settlement: $365,000 paid over a hiring algorithm that automatically rejected older applicants. Meanwhile, Europe’s new AI Act threatens fines of up ...

A new software combines connectivity, scalability and data-driven artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to push the boundaries of the IC verification process and make chip design teams more ...

Formal methods are a suite of mathematically grounded techniques that underpin the design, specification, and verification of programming languages and software systems. They involve the use of ...

Formal methods represent a rigorous suite of mathematical techniques designed to specify, develop and verify system models with a high degree of reliability. In system modelling, these methods provide ...
