Abstract
This paper presents a basis for the formal reuse of hardware components as a strategy to reduce the task of verifying new hardware elements. Assuming the existence of a library of formally verified hardware components, we propose to make effective reuse of these existing elements when creating new ones. The strategy used is to formally create an interface element with which an existing hardware component is composed in order to implement a new desired component. In doing so, the verification task of the whole system is reduced to verifying the interface element.
