Abstract

We introduce SImulation Verification with Augmentation (SIVA), a tool for checking safety properties on digital hardware designs. SIVA integrates simulation with symbolic techniques for vector generation. Specifically, the core algorithm uses a combination of ATPG and BDDs to generate input vectors which cover behavior not excited by simulation. Experimental results demonstrate considerable improvement in state space coverage compared with either simulation or formal verification in isolation.
