Title
On the verification of memory management mechanisms
Abstract
We report on the design and formal verification of a complex processor supporting address translation by means of a memory management unit (MMU). We give a paper and pencil proof that such a processor together with an appropriate page fault handler simulates virtual machines modeling user computation. These results are crucial steps towards the seamless verification of entire computer systems.
