Abstract

We present a methodology in which the behavior of custom memories can be abstracted by a couple of artifacts-one for the interface and another for the contents. Memories consisting of several ports result into several user-provided abstract specifications, which in turn can be converted to simulation models. We show that (i) a simulation model is an approximation of the corresponding abstract specification and (ii) the abstracted memory core can be composed with the un-abstracted surrounding logic using a simple theory of composition. We make use of this methodology to verify equivalence between register transfer level and transistor level descriptions of custom memories.

一种使用抽象规范组合来验证PowerPC/sup TM/自定义内存的语言形式
我们提出了一种方法,在这种方法中,自定义内存的行为可以通过几个工件进行抽象——一个用于接口,另一个用于内容。由多个端口组成的内存会产生多个用户提供的抽象规范,这些规范又可以转换为仿真模型。我们证明(i)仿真模型是相应抽象规范的近似值,(ii)抽象存储核心可以使用简单的组合理论与非抽象的周围逻辑组合。我们利用这种方法来验证自定义存储器的寄存器传输级和晶体管级描述之间的等效性。
