xeve - An Esterel Verification Environment - Version v1_3
xeve
[options] [wish_options] [file[.blif]]
Xeve is a graphical interface environment for the (symbolic)
analysis and verification of Esterel programs modeled as Finite State
Machines (FSM). Its main features are:
- FSM model construction
- FSM minimization
and visualization
- Output emission status checking used as a back-end of
model-checking
- of safety properties expressed by observers.
Minimized FSMs
can be graphically explored within the tool Atg (http://www.inria.fr/meije/verification).
Diagnostic paths generated from model-checking are loadable in the tape
reader of the Esterel graphical simulator Xes (http://www.inria.fr/meije/esterel).
Xeve GUI is implemented in Tcl/Tk. FSMs are represented symbolically with
BDDs using the TiGeR system data structures and libraries. It is an integration
of two unix processors called bliffc2 and checkblif. Xeve command can be
sent either with a blif file name argument or without. In both case the
graphical panel of the interface is displayed and in the first case, the
given file is loaded in the panel.
Options "wish_options" are those
accepted by the wish(1)
program, but the "-help" option, trapped by xeve.
The following options are accepted by xeve:
- -rel relation_file
- Specifies
a relation blif file.
- -help
- Gives a help on the xeve command syntax.
- -info
- Gives
informations on the xeve program (version number, date, author,...).
The two
preceding options exit the program without doing anything else.
