Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the backbone of modern industrial automation, orchestrating critical operations across diverse sectors. As these controllers become increasingly complex, ...

Automata learning and formal verification represent converging fields aimed at enhancing the reliability and safety of complex systems. Automata learning involves the algorithmic inference of system ...

Successful technologies weave themselves into the fabric of society and essentially slip from our consciousness as have embedded control systems. Such systems with embedded computing units interact ...

Formal verification is an automatic checking methodology that catches many common design errors and can uncover ambiguities in the design. Formal verification is the process of verifying the ...

Formal verification, which uses mathematical analysis rather than simulation tests, has been available in commercial EDA tools for more than 20 years and in academia much longer. As with many new ...

Formal verification is a process that mathematically proves the correctness of a system, ensuring it “behaves exactly as intended under all defined conditions.” the CertiK team notes in a blog post.

The first time I came into contact with the concepts of a digital hardware description language (HDL) and digital logic simulation, I inherently understood how it all “worked.” The idea that the ...

Formal verification is poised to take on an increasingly significant role in automotive security, building upon its already widespread use in safety-critical applications. Formal has been essential ...

In August 2023, the EEOC reached its first AI-bias settlement: $365,000 paid over a hiring algorithm that automatically rejected older applicants. Meanwhile, Europe’s new AI Act threatens fines of up ...

How formal verification is able to find bugs before signoff. Formal verification’s ability to mathematically prove exhaustively that a chip design meets a set of assertions. Formal techniques are ...
