Hardware Design Verification Simulation and Formal Method Based Approaches - Prentice Hall

As digital logic designs grow larger and more complex, functional
verification has become the number one bottleneck in the design
process. Reducing verification time is crucial to project success, yet
many practicing engineers have had little formal training in
verification, and little exposure to the newest solutions. Hardware Design Verification
systematically presents today’s most valuable simulation-based and
formal verification techniques, helping test and design engineers
choose the best approach for each project, quickly gain confidence in
their designs, and move into fabrication far more rapidly. College
students will find that coverage of verification principles and common
industry practices will help them prepare for jobs as future
verification engineers.

Author William K. Lam, one of the world’s
leading experts in design verification, is a recent winner of the
Chairman’s Award for Innovation, Sun Microsystems’ most prestigious
technical achievement award. Drawing on his wide-ranging experience, he
introduces the foundational principles of verification, presents
traditional techniques that have survived the test of time, and
introduces emerging techniques for today’s most challenging designs.
Throughout, Lam emphasizes practical examples rather than mathematical
proofs; wherever advanced math is essential, he explains it clearly and
accessibly.
