Abstract
This paper first summarizes the existing basic theories and methods of hardware design verification. Then it analyzes and compares the simulation-based verification and formal methods-based verification, and discusses Equivalence Checking, Model Checking and Theorem Proving in detail. Finally, it points out the existing problems and the future directions in the field.
