METHOD, SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR AUTOMATED VERIFICATION OF GATING LOGIC USING FORMAL VERIFICATION

Automated verification methodology parsing scripts auto generate testbench hardware design language, such as VHDL or Verilog, from the design source VHDL or Verilog. A formal verification model is then built comprising the testbench VHDL and the design under test. The resulting design verification tool then provides proofs and counterexamples for all of the rules, e.g., auto-generated rules, in the testbench.
