ABSTRACT: Policies can be understood as specifications; therefore they can be translated more or less easily into formal languages and then be verified by formal techniques such as model checking. In this paper, we focus on formal verification of real-life industrial policies of the IBM Tivoli System Automation for Multi-Platform (ISA). We use PSL to model the system and describe the desired behavior and the RuleBase PE model checker to verify it.

ABSTRACT: RuleBase is a symbolic model checking tool, developed by the IBM Haifa Research Laboratory. It is the result of four years of experience in practical formal verification of hardware which, we believe, has been a key factor in bringing the tool to its current level of maturity. Our experience shows that after a short training period, designers can operate the tool independently and achieve impressive results. We present the tool and summarize our development and usage experience, focusing on some work done during 1996.

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a case study in the practical application of
formal verification. Specifically, we describe our experience in
applying the formal verification technique of symbolic model checking to
the verification of PCI bus bridges. During the last 2 years, we have
used symbolic model checking to verify more than 12 hardware designs,
including a number of PCI bus bridges. This use of formal verification
has led to the better understanding of formal verification capabilities
and the establishment of formal verification techniques as a standard
verification tool in the Haifa Design Group at IBM's Haifa Research
Laboratory. More than 5 PCI bus bridge designs have been verified using
formal verification, including a design in which formal verification was
used to do all checks at the unit level. A PCI bus bridge design that
was verified with formal verification was announced as an IBM product
and became available to customers after a single tape-out
