Title Verifying a virtual component interface-based PCI bus wrapper with FormalCheck
Date 2001-06-14
Description The Virtual Sockets Interface Alliance (VSIA) recently released the Virtual Component Interface (VCI) Standard. This paper reports recent experiences in formally verifying a few properties of a VCI-compliant PCI 2.1 bus wrapper model in the formal verification tool, FormalCheck. Though we chose to only verify three liveness properties and three safety properties, the verification highlighted issues buried deeply within the model, quickly. We found eight issues in our model in four person-weeks of verification effort.
