In this talk I will describe new tools that allow us to automatically prove termination and other liveness properties of software systems. In particular I will discuss the Terminator program termination prover and its application to the problem of showing that Windows device driver event-handling routines always eventually stop responding to events.
The formal hardware verification effort at Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. has emphasized theorem proving using ACL2, and has focused on the elementary floating-point operations. Floating-point modules, along with the rest of our microprocessor designs, are specified at the register-transfer level in a small synthesizable subset of Verilog. This language is simple enough to admit a clear semantic definition,...
Developing software for automotive applications is a challenging task. To stay competitive conflicting goals must be met: complex and innovative algorithms with many versions for different car line variants have to be implemented within the tight resource boundaries of embedded systems; high reliability especially for safety critical applications like airbag or braking applications has to be ensured...
