Automated Design Error Localization in RTL Designs. Jenihhin, M., Tšepurov, A., Tihhomirov, V., Raik, J., Hantson, H., Ubar, R., Bartsch, G., Escobar, J. H. M., & Wuttke, H. IEEE Design Test, 31(1):83–92, February, 2014. Conference Name: IEEE Design Test

This paper considers the case where a design described in a Hardware Description Language (HDL) has been identified as erroneous during functional verification and, thus, design error localization is required. However, due to the enormous complexity of modern Register-Transfer Level (RTL) designs, several bugs may escape verification and are consequently handled by post-silicon validation.
