The project is a Ph.D. research about coverage-directed-generation using machine-learning techniques. STMicroelectronics wishes to give the University its processor simulation and test generation environment as infrastructure needed to conduct the research. Genesys-Pro is part of this environment.

A detailed machine readable semantics of PSL/Sugar has been developed in the version of higher order logic supported by the HOL system. Several sanity checking properties have been proved, including the equivalence of the clocked semantics with the composition of clock elimination rewrites followed by the unclocked semantics. The semantics in higher order logic is believed to be an accurate formalization of the semi-formal semantics in Appendix B of the Language Reference Manual. The semantics of PSL/Sugar is expected to change (e.g. modifications to the treatment of clocking and the semantics of aborts), but we expect to keep our machine readable semantics synchronized with the latest Accellera semantics. We list below some research projects that could build on the existing HOL semantics. Machine readable golden semantics Synthesizing checkers from PSL/Sugar Validating translations between PSL/Sugar and other languages Compiling very high level properties into PSL/Sugar Verification using theorem proving Investigating relations between PSL/Sugar and ITL Further sanity checking
