We present a novel set of tools for performing symbolic timing verification of timing diagrams. The tools are multi-purpose with uses in verification, derivation of synthesis constraints, and design evaluation. Our methodology is based on using techniques for manipulating Presburger formulas. We demonstrate using several interesting examples that the method is efficient in practice and should be considered for inclusion in commercial tools. 0 This work was supported by an NSF RIA Award (MIP-9410279). 1 Sometimes the term "symbolic verification" is used to describe a verification methodology (e.g., using BDDs to symbolically explore a state space) but, in our case, the actual input and output make use of symbolic variables.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
