Abstract: . Symbolic methods such as model checking using binary decision
diagrams (BDDs) have had limited success in verifying large designs
because BDD sizes regularly exceed memory capacity. Symbolic simulation
is a method that controls BDD size by allowing the user to specify
the number of symbolic variables in a test. However, BDDs still may blow
up when using symbolic simulation in large designs with a large number
of symbolic variables. This paper describes techniques for limiting
the size... (Update)

...to evaluate functions to encode the circuit behavior. However, the use of BDD limits the capability of the symbolic simulator [78, 88, 11] due to the potentially memory intensive nature of BDDs. SATsolvers, on the other hand, enjoy several properties which make them attractive...
