  7. Motivation for Multi-threaded Approach • Scheduling Problem • Increasing availability of powerful SMP machines

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

  9. 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

  10. Multi-threaded Reachability Early Communication and Partial Communication Time • Advantage: • Parallel speedup • Finishes the reachability analysis faster • Catches bug faster than the previous versions

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

  12. Results on Industrial Circuits

  13. Results on public benchmarks

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

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