The results presented in this session focus on sequential equivalence checking, and for this purpose, isomorphic proof obligations are identified. If two proof obligations are isomorphic, then the tool only needs to derive a formal proof for one of the obligations, thus reducing the total number of proof obligations that need to be considered. In this presentation, we look at a variety of industrial equivalence checking testcases and demonstrate that:
- This simulation-based approach can identify the isomorphic proof obligations in mere seconds.
- On average, the number of proof obligations is reduced by 61%.
- The time needed to prove the proof obligations is reduced by 60%.
