RTL verification using computational complexity-based property ranking and scheduling

Abstract:

A method or apparatus comprising a verification system using a processor to utilize a first set of verification engines to solve easy properties of an integrated circuit design, such as RTL, running a machine-learning algorithm for a hardness ranking analysis on a plurality of properties based on data from the first set of verification engines, and ranking the plurality of properties by a hardness of verification. The method or apparatus further to order the plurality of properties based on the hardness of verification.
