Publication number: 20230148108Abstract: A computer system obtains and/or assists in creation of a natural language description file corresponding to a design, where the design is a hardware design or a software design and processes the natural language description file to extract semantic expressions. One or more intermediate representation data structures is generated from selected ones of the semantic expressions. Each intermediate representation data structure includes natural language design objects, natural language design object properties, and relationships between natural language design objects and/or natural language design object properties. The computer system transforms each intermediate representation data structure into one or more corresponding design verification statements derived from the natural language description file. Those design verification statements are subsequently evaluated against one or more design implementation files corresponding to the design.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Inventors: Edward CARLISLE, IV, Jonathan GRAF, Scott HARPER, Steven FREDERIKSEN

Publication number: 20230087217Abstract: A computer system traces an original electronic design automation (EDA) implementation process for electronic hardware designs. The original EDA implementation process includes multiple subprocesses to convert a hardware model to a physically-realized electronic circuit. The system inputs a cryptographic key and design information that includes the hardware model, constraints, properties, implementation settings, and other directives for directing the conversion. The cryptographic key and design information are processed to generate a sequence of instructions to execute and provide traceability of each subprocess.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2022Publication date: March 23, 2023Inventors: Ali Asgar SOHANGHPURWALA, Scott HARPER, Jonathan GRAF, Carlton FRALEY, Alan COOK, Timothy DUNHAM
