Quotations
24 ;;Quote: validation methods are primarily used as bug-finders; formal methods are useful because they find different bugs than traditional methods; a more realistic goal than guaranteeing correctness
24 ;;Quote: can simplify problem if formal verification is used for finding bugs instead of proving correctness; e.g., check cache-coherence protocol with four processors, one cache line, and two data values
