A Specification-Based Semi-Formal Functional Verification Method by a Stage Transition Graph Model
IEEE Access, 2019 The semi-formal verification method, in which the functionality is formally specified and the checking is undertaken through the formal model-based simulation, has been a promising choice for the functional verification of hardware designs.

Formal Verification of HotStuff
, 2021 HotStuff is a recent algorithm for repeated distributed consensus used in permissioned blockchains. We present a simplified version of the HotStuff algorithm and verify its safety using both Ivy and the TLA Proof Systems tools.We show that HotStuff deviates from the traditional view-instance model used in other consensus algorithms and instead follows ...

Formal Verification of Hardware Synthesis [PDF]
, 2013 We report on the implementation of a certified compiler for a high-level hardware description language (HDL) called Fe-Si (FEatherweight SynthesIs). Fe-Si is a simplified version of Bluespec, an HDL based on a notion of guarded atomic actions. Fe-Si is defined as a dependently typed deep embedding in Coq. The target language of the compiler corresponds

From Event-B models to Dafny code contracts [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceThe constructive approach to software correctness aims at formal modelling and verification of the structure and behaviour of a system in different levels of abstraction. In contrast, the analytical approach to software verification

Safety Assessment of Collaborative Robotics Through Automated Formal Verification
IEEE Transactions on robotics, 2020 A crucial aspect of physical human–robot collaboration (HRC) is to maintain a safe common workspace for human operator. However, close proximity between human–robot and unpredictability of human behavior raises serious challenges in terms of safety. This
