Abstract

In this paper, we describe a case study of formal verification for a computer bus arbitration controller by using the temporal logic of model checking. The implementation of the verification uses the Berkeley-VIS model checking system. Futurebus is a multiprocessor system bus with an arbitration and control mechanism. We describe the verification of the arbitration controller of ""Futurebus'' (IEEE-P.896) in Verilog-HDL (Hardware Description Language). Using this method, we have verified all satisfied specifications by designing the general Futurebus under CTL (Computation Tree Logic) and using the VIS model checker.
