Abstract

In a process of IP selection, it is necessary to establish whether a candidate IP is equivalent to a behavioral model of a design proposed by a customer. It is desirable to perform this verification to exclude IPs, which "don't match" the rest of the design. This work combines a simulation approach to establishing equivalence between models with formal regular expression techniques to provide transaction-level preliminary evaluation of IP suitability. Such evaluation could precede a decision to acquire IP.
