This paper presents advancements in multi-threaded reachability analysis through Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs). It explores BDD-based verification techniques, focusing on partitioned reachability methods that enhance parallelism and speedup in bug detection. We discuss the benefits of improved parallelization and early communication, which allow for faster execution while ensuring accuracy. Results derived from industrial circuits and benchmarks demonstrate notable improvements compared to naive approaches, pointing to future work in enhancing deterministic behavior and optimizing cache performance.

  2. Outline • BDD-based Verification • Reachability Techniques • Multi-threaded Reachability • Results • Conclusion and Future work

  3. BDD-based Verification • BDD : • Binary Decision Diagram • Used to represent Boolean functions • Reachability Analysis • Finds bug • Finds a counter example for the invariant • Proves invariant • Efficient CTL model checking

  9. Problems: Not much parallelism Advantage: Parallel speedup Catch a bug faster than the sequential version Multi-threaded Reachability Naïve parallelization Time

  10. Multi-threaded Reachability Early Communication Time • Advantage: • Parallel speedup • Finishes the reachability analysis faster • Catches bug faster than the naive version • Problems: • Parallelism could be better

  11. Multi-threaded Reachability Early Communication and Partial Communication Time • Advantage: • Parallel speedup • Finishes the reachability analysis faster • Catches bug faster than the previous versions • Problems: • Parallelism ! • Could it be better?

  12. Multi-threaded Reachability Time • We find the bugs faster ! • Improved parallelism • Better parallel speedup

  13. Results on Industrial Circuits

  14. Results on public benchmarks

  15. Results : Gantt charts Real execution traces from our multi-threaded reachability program

  16. Conclusion and Future Work • Parallelize the Reachability • Multi-threaded Reachability • Better sequential results • Deterministic behavior • Improve the parallelism further • Study cache behavior
