Abstract: Methods and systems for providing concise data for analyzing checker completeness, in the context of formal verification analysis of circuit designs. The methods and systems concisely report information useful to a human user (e.g., circuit designer or verification engineer) for efficiently determining what manual action should be taken next to resolve holes in verification coverage. The reported information can include lists of signals on which checkers can be written, which lists can be ranked, can be limited to a subset of interest signals, and can include corresponding cover items for each reported interest signal. The present systems and methods thereby improve on reporting provided to the user, permitting the user to more quickly advance a formal verification process toward full coverage of the relevant portions of a circuit design.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for electronic design verification. Embodiments may include receiving, using at least one processor, an electronic design and automatically identifying one or more code coverage points from a netlist of an original model associated with the electronic design. Embodiments may include receiving a property and one or more elements, each of the one or more elements corresponding to one of the one or more code coverage points. Embodiments may further include performing model checking based upon, at least in part, the property and the one or more elements. Embodiments may also include verifying the property and generating an unsatisfiability core based upon, at least in part, the one or more elements.
