Yes, they have, but are they required having them? Also, it is not always straightforward to use constraint-solving technology to solve the temporal constraints, Dmitry ________________________________ From: Bresticker, Shalom Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 4:49 PM To: Korchemny, Dmitry; Mirek Forczek; sv-ec@server.eda.org Cc: sv-ac@server.eda.org Subject: RE: [sv-ac] RE: [sv-ec] 1900 mantis (checkers): checker variable semantics: interoperability and portability issues. But simulators already have to have constraint solvers? Shalom [DK] There are several reasons for doing that. One is that the assumptions may be contradictory or contradict the RTL. The other reason is not to require from a simulator to have an embedded formal verification engine. Without such an engine you cannot guarantee to satisfy all the assumptions (and even with it you can have a blow-up). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Intel Israel (74) Limited This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential material for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
