IDENTIFYING A HIGH OIL PHENOTYPE IN MAIZE BY DETECTING A MARKER LOCUS GENETICALLY LIKNED WITH A QTL6 REGION

Verification friendly models for SAT-based formal verification are generated from a given high-level design wherein during construction the following guidelines are enforced: 1) No re-use of functional units and registers; 2) Minimize the use of muxes and sharing; 3) Reduce the number of control steps; 4) Avoid pipelines; 5) Chose functional units from “verification friendly” library; 6) Re-use operations; 7) Perform property-preserving slicing; 8) Support “assume” and “assert” in the language specification; and 8) Use external memory modules instead of register arrays.
