When a model does not satisfy a given specification, a counterexample is produced by the model checker to demonstrate the failure. A user must then examine the counterexample trace, in order to visually identify the failure that it demonstrates. If the trace is long, or the specification is complex, finding the failure in the trace becomes a non-trivial task. In this paper, we address the problem...
Designer-level verification (DLV) is now widely accepted as a necessary practice in the hardware industry. More than ever, logic designers are held responsible for the initial validation of modules they develop, before these are released to systematic verification. DLV requires specific tools and methods adapted for designers, who are not full-time verification experts. We present user experience...

This paper presents TAB-BackSpace, our novel scheme to provide the effect of an unlimited-length trace buffer with no on-chip overhead beyond the existing debug logic. We present the theoretical foundation of our work, simulation studies on how we reduce the possibility of computing an erroneous trace, and results from the bring-up lab on real silicon of an IBM POWER7 processor, where TAB-BackSpace...
