Equivalence checking by logic relaxation [PDF]
We introduce a new framework for Equivalence Checking (EC) of Boolean circuits based on a general technique called Logic Relaxation (LoR). The essence of LoR is to relax the formula to be solved and compute a superset S of the set of new behaviors. Namely, S contains all new satisfying assignments that appeared due to relaxation and does not contain ...

On the application of equivalence checking algorithms for program minimization
Equivalence checking algorithms found vast applications in system programming; they are used in software refactoring, security checking, malware detection, program integration, regression verification, compiler verification and validation.

Symbolic Algorithms for Language Equivalence and Kleene Algebra with Tests [PDF]
We first propose algorithms for checking language equivalence of finite automata over a large alphabet. We use symbolic automata, where the transition function is compactly represented using a (multi-terminal) binary decision diagrams (BDD). The key idea

Qualitative Logics and Equivalences for Probabilistic Systems [PDF]
We investigate logics and equivalence relations that capture the qualitative behavior of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). We present Qualitative Randomized CTL (QRCTL): formulas of this logic can express the fact that certain temporal properties hold ...

Equivalence and Minimization for Model Checking Labeled Markov Chains
Model checking of Markov chains using logics like CSL or asCSL proves whether a logical formula holds for a state of the Markov chain. It has been developed in the last decade to a widely used approach to express performance and dependability quantities ...

Formal Verification of Fault-Tolerant Hardware Designs
Digital circuits for space applications can suffer from operation failures due to radiation effects. Error detection and mitigation techniques are widely accepted solutions to improve dependability of digital circuits under Single Event Upsets (SEUs) and

Hennessy-Milner Logic with Greatest Fixed Points as a Complete Behavioural Specification Theory [PDF]
There are two fundamentally different approaches to specifying and verifying properties of systems. The logical approach makes use of specifications given as formulae of temporal or modal logics and relies on efficient model checking algorithms; the ...
