Subject: [oc] [ANN] InFormal 0.1.1 Released
Hello,I just released InFormal 0.1.1: a new open-source assertion based
verification tool. InFormal can prove the correctness of Verilog designs
without using simulation -- otherwise known as formal verification.
With release 0.1.1, InFormal now provides initial support for PSL/Sugar.
Currently only a small subset of PSL is supported, but it's PSL never
the less.
Though InFormal is in very early beta, it has already uncovered bugs in
real designs -- in part thanks to automatic assertions. Using
InFormal's automatic assertions, engineers can find potential design
issues without having to explicitly define PSL properties.
InFormal leverages the elaboration and synthesis technology of Icarus
Verilog with the high performance symbolic model checking engine of
NuSMV. Many thanks to the Icarus and NuSMV teams for providing their
awesome open-source technology.
For more information on InFormal, including source code and Linux
binaries, visit:

Enjoy!
-Tom
