Computer systems under development are routinely modeled by simulators, and formal verification can be integrated into conventional computer system development by reasoning directly about such simulators. Simulators must be extremely fast to be usable in a real development effort. We have crafted a model for a simple processor in the logic of the ACL2 theorem prover that supports both formal analysis and efficient execution, with performance near that of a simulator written in C. We demonstrate our approach using this simple model and indicate how we applied it to our latest microprocessor.
