An embedded system is loosely defined as any system that utilizes
electronics but is not perceived or used as a general-purpose
computer. Traditionally, one or more electronic circuits or
microprocessors are literally embedded in the system, either taking
up roles that used to be performed by mechanical devices, or
providing functionality that is not otherwise possible. The goal of
this book is to investigate how formal methods can be applied to
the domain of embedded system design. The emphasis is on the
specification, representation, validation, and design exploration
of such systems from a high-level perspective. The authors review
the framework upon which the theories and experiments are based,
and through which the formal methods are linked to synthesis and
simulation. A formal verification methodology is formulated to
verify general properties of the designs and demonstrate that this
methodology is efficient in dealing with the problem of complexity
and effective in finding bugs. However, manual intervention in the
form of abstraction selection and separation of timing and
functionality is required. It is conjectured that, for specific
properties, efficient algorithms exist for completely automatic
formal validations of systems. Synchronous Equivalence: Formal
Methods for Embedded Systems presents a brand new formal approach
to high-level equivalence analysis. It opens design exploration
avenues previously uncharted. It is a work that can stand alone but
at the same time is fully compatible with the synthesis and
simulation framework described in another book by Kluwer Academic
Publishers Hardware-Software Co-Design of Embedded Systems: The
POLIS Approach, by Balarin et al. Synchronous Equivalence: Formal
Methods for Embedded Systems will be of interest to embedded system
designers (automotive electronics, consumer electronics, and
telecommunications), micro-controller designers, CAD developers and
students, as well as IP providers, architecture platform designers,
operating system providers, and designers of VLSI circuits and
systems.
