摘要
We introduce a new verification methodology for modem microprocessors that uses a simple checker processor to validate the execution of a companion high-performance processor. The checker can be viewed as an at-speed emulator that is formally verified to be compliant to an ISA specification. This verification approach enables the practical deployment of formal methods without impacting overall performance.
