Formal methods provide a rigorous mathematical foundation for the specification, development and verification of medical device software. This approach enhances both reliability and safety, which are ...

The appeal of a more rigorous development path for software design has long been obvious: As the software content and complexity of the average project grow, software verification and testing consumes ...

Safety and reliability have moved to the top of the list of critical criteria in software development. There are many ways to achieve improved safety and reliability, and one of the best is to employ ...

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 ...

When we talk about the signoff of digital IP, we are referring to the full verification of a block. Every feature listed in a device’s datasheet requires verification. Furthermore, every register ...

A new technical paper titled “HyPFuzz: Formal-Assisted Processor Fuzzing” was published by researchers at Texas A&M University and Technische Universität Darmstadt. “Recent research has shown that ...

Automotive software has a vital role in the future of driving. Credit: via Shutterstock. Software is at the heart of modern mobility. From advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) to electric vehicle ...

How formal verification is able to find bugs before signoff. Formal verification’s ability to mathematically prove exhaustively that a chip design meets a set of assertions. Formal techniques are ...
