TY - JOUR A1 - Stoffel, Dominik A1 - Kunz, Wolfgang T1 - Convergence behaviour of structural FSM traversal T2 - Proc. of the Russian Conference with Foreign Participation on Computer-Aided Technologies in Applied Discrete Mathematics, (ICADM) Oct. 2000, Tomsk, Russia N2 - We present a theoretical analysis of structural FSM traversal, which is the basis for the sequential equivalence checking algorithm Record & Play presented earlier. We compare the convergence behaviour of exact and approximative structural FSM traversal with that of standard BDD-based FSM traversal. We show that for most circuits encountered in practice exact structural FSM traversal reaches the fixed point as fast as symbolic FSM traversal, while approximation can significantly reduce in the number of iterations needed. Our experiments confirm these results. Y1 - 2006 UR - http://publikationen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/2883 UR - https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:hebis:30-25226 ER -
