Applied Formal Verification delivers right-now methods for integrating this powerful tool into your design process. Written by two of the field's leaders, this tutorial opens shortcuts to the concept-proving, efficiency-boosting benefits of formal verification. The book includes real-world examples of formal verification applied to complex designs and clarifying explanations of high-level requirement writing. If you've some knowledge of Verilog or VHDL and simulation verification, you're ready to build your real-world problem-solving skills with this potent guide to formal verification.
