摘要
The object of this article is the analysis of asynchronous circuits for speed independence or delay insensitivity. The circuits are specified as a netlist of logic functions describing the components. The analysis is based on a derivation of an event specification of the circuit behavior in a form of a signal graph. Signal graphs can be viewed either as a formalization of timing diagrams, or as a signal interpreted version of marked graphs (a subclass of Petri nets). The main advantage of this method is that a state explosion is avoided. A restoration of an event specification of a circuit also helps to solve the behavior identification problem, i.e., to compare the obtained specification with the desired specification. We illustrate the method by means of some examples.
