Title
An AMBA-ARM7 Formal Verification Platform
Abstract
The pressure to create a working System on Chip design as early as possible leads designers to consider using a platform based design method. In this approach, designing an application is a matter of selecting from a set of standard components with compatible specifications. Subsequently, a formal verification platform can be constructed. The formal verification platform provides an environment to analysed the combined properties of the design. In this paper, we present a methodology to do formal System on Chip analysis by developing generic formal components that can be integrated in a formal verification platform. First, we develop reusable formal properties of standard components. Second, we define a generic formal platform in which components of System on Chip design can be integrated. The platform contains basic components such as a standard bus protocol and a processor. Third, we combine the properties of standard components and obtain a set of refined properties of the system. We use these properties to develop the required specifications of the remaining components.
