Abstract

We present a new methodology that permits to reuse an existing hardware component that has not been developed within the B framework while maintaining a correct design flow. It consists of writing a specification of the component in B and proving that the VHDL description of the component implements the specification using the ACL2 system. This paper focuses on the translation of the B specification into ACL2.
