FMCAD paper reports SMT-based formal verification of SystemVerilog RNM

TU Wien's repository made available an FMCAD 2026 paper by Augusto Mafra and Haniel Barbosa describing a formal-verification flow for SystemVerilog real-number models built by extending Yosys and Pono. The paper compares SMT model checking with real-arithmetic and IEEE floating-point interpretations on 31 mixed-signal benchmarks, documenting performance and semantic tradeoffs.
