摘要： A method for automatically generating a set of specifications against which a model of the digital circuit can be verified. In one embodiment, the method includes an initial step in which a specification class that corresponds to a type of behavior of the digital circuit is defined. A set of specification formulae that satisfies the defined specification class is then enumerated. Each formula in the set of formulae is then applied to the model of the digital circuit to determine whether the digital circuit satisfies the corresponding formula. The definition of the specification class preferably includes a set of input conditions, a set of output or response conditions, and a temporal component. Preferably, the enumeration of the specification formulae includes all specification formulae that satisfy the specification class. The application of the set of formulae to the model of the digital circuit is preferably achieved with a verification engine such as a model checker. Preferably, the specification formulae are expressed in temporal logic such as computational tree logic (CTL). In one embodiment the specification formulae are quantified such that the digital circuit satisfies a formula only if the formula always holds true. In another embodiment, the specification formulae are quantified such that the digital circuit satisfies the formula if the formula ever holds true. The preferred embodiment of the invention preferably includes displaying the results achieved by applying the specification formulae to the digital circuit models.

摘要： A method for compressing files utilizing a dictionary within a data-processing system is disclosed. A binary file commonly available to a data-compressing system during compression and to a data-decompressing system during decompression can be served as a dictionary file. A first dictionary array is initially generated utilizing the dictionary file. Each entry within the first dictionary array includes a set of unique bit patterns from the dictionary file. An input file is parsed into multiple blocks, with each block having the same length as each entry within the first dictionary array. The input file is then compared against the first dictionary array, and each entry within the first dictionary array that includes the same bit patterns as a block from the input file is marked accordingly. A second dictionary array that includes all the marked entries from the first dictionary array is subsequently generated, and this second dictionary array is utilized in the compression of the input file. During compression, any block from the input file having a bit pattern found in the second dictionary array will be replaced by a corresponding index to the second dictionary array.

摘要： A method is provided for automatically enhancing verification of a design under test by using model checking on the state transitions captured during simulation. The enhanced verification is due to the fact that even though to all of the individual transitions captured were exercised during simulation, not all possible sequences of those transitions were necessarily exercised during the simulation, and the unexercised sequences may hide "bugs". The non-deterministic and exhaustive nature of the model checker ensures that all possible sequences comprising the captured state transitions are exercised. The methodology consists of utilizing the state transitions, and the inputs causing those state transitions as observed during simulation, to define legitimate input values that can be applied, nondeterministically and exhaustively, by the model checker to the design under test.

摘要： A method and apparatus for reducing the number of cycles required to implement load instructions in a data processing system having a Central Processing Unit (CPU). The CPU includes a rename register file that can be used in whole or in part for retaining cache lines from previously executed load instructions. The rename register file is then used by subsequent instructions (e.g. load instructions) requiring the data previously loaded therein. Thus, reducing the cycles normally associated with retrieving the data from the cache for the subsequent instructions.

摘要： Simplifying any cumbersome URLs that are made public. The function of converting to simplify cumbersome URLs is performed by Web service providers for appropriate fees. Accordingly, the converted URL will have a new domain portion, i.e. the Web service provider's domain along with a simplified path portion defining the path with the Web service provider's domain that will point to the original URL, stored within the service provider. Within the service provider, URLs of said accessed Web documents are converted to include a domain section specifying the service provider's domain and a path portion within said service provider's domain that is simpler than the original URL path portion. The path portion in the converted URL is usually shorter than the path portion in the original URL.

Programming instructions are also provided on the server for delivery to the client on the network. The instructions are for causing the client to render questions on a user interface from the survey document. The questions initially rendered include a first one of the questions. The instructions are also for causing the client to branch to and render on the user interface second or third ones of the questions responsive to the survey document and an answer received for the first question.
