Many tasks in CAD, such as equivalence checking, property checking, logic synthesis, and false paths analysis require efficient Boolean reasoning for problems derived from circuit...
The clock signal and clock skew become more and more important for the circuit performance. Since there are salient shortcomings in the conventional topology construction algorith...
Late changes in silicon design (ECO) is a common although undesired practice. The need for ECO exists even in high-level design flows since bugs may occur in the specifications, ...
2QBF is the problem of evaluating a Quantified Boolean Formula (QBF) with two levels of quantification. Many practical problems in sequential verification can be formulated as i...
In this paper bounded model checking of asynchronous concurrent systems is introduced as a promising application area for answer set programming. This is an extension of earlier w...
