A method for performing verification includes selecting a first set containing a seed register and adding to a second set a result of a subtraction of a fanout of the first set from a fanin of the first set. A third set is rendered equal to a result of a subtraction of a fanin of the second set from a fanout of the second set, and whether a combination of the first set and the third set is equivalent to the first set is determined. In response to determining that the combination of the first set and the second set is not equivalent to the first set, a min-cut of the first set and the second set containing a minimal set of predicates between a first component and the logic to which the component fans out, wherein the logic is bordered by the second set is returned.

A method, system, and computer program product for preserving critical inputs. According to an embodiments of the present invention, an initial design including one or more primary inputs which cannot be eliminated, one or more primary inputs which can be eliminated, one or more targets, and one or more state elements are received. A cut of said initial design including one or more cut gates is identified, and a relation of one or more values producible to said one or more cut gates in terms of said one or more primary inputs which cannot be eliminated, said one or more primary inputs which can be eliminated and said one or more state elements is computed. Said relation is synthesized to form a gate set, and an abstracted design is formed from said gate set. Verification is performed on said abstracted design to generate verification results.

A method, system and computer program product for verifying that a design conforms to a desired property is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a design, a first initial state of the design, and a property for verification with respect to the design. The first initial state of the design is expanded to create a superset of the first initial state containing one or more states reachable from the first initial state of the design. A superset is synthesized to define a second initial state of the design. Application of the superset to the design is overapproximated through cutpoint insertion into the superset to obtain a modified superset, and the property is verified with reference to the modified superset.

A method, system and computer program product for reversing effects of reparameterization is disclosed. The method comprises receiving an original design, an abstracted design, and a first trace over the abstracted design. One or more conditional values are populated into the first trace over the abstracted design, and a k-step satisfiability check is cast to obtain a second trace. One or more calculated values are concatenated to an initial gate set in the second trace with one or more established values to a generated subset of the initial design in the abstracted trace to form a new trace, and one or more effects of a reparameterization are reversed by returning the new trace over the initial design.

A method, system and computer program product for performing verification of an electronic design is disclosed. The method includes receiving a design, wherein the design includes a first target set and a first register set including one or more registers. A structural product extraction is formed from one or more targets from the first target set and the structural product extraction is recursed for one or more next-state functions of a subset of the one or more registers. A sum-of-products form is recursed from the structural product extraction for one or more next-state functions of a subset of the one or more registers and a product-of-sums form of a result of the second recursing is decomposed to generate a decomposition of the product-of-sums form. The decomposition of the product-of-sums form is synthesized into a second target set and a subset of the second target set to recursively decompose is chosen. In response to the subset of the second target set being nonempty, the first target set is recursively decomposed and, in response to the second target set being empty, verification is applied to the second target set.

A method, system and computer program product for reducing subexpressions in structural design representations containing AND and OR gates are disclosed. The method comprises receiving an initial design, in which the initial design represents an electronic circuit, containing an AND gate. A first simplification mode for the initial design from a set of applicable simplification modes is selected, wherein said simplification mode is an AND/OR simplification mode, and a simplification of the initial design according to the first simplification mode is performed to generate a reduced design. Whether a size of the reduced design is less than a size of the initial design is determined and, in response to determining that the size of the reduced design is less than the size of the initial design, the initial design is replaced with the reduced design.
