We define an equational transformation system for solving equations on terms where all sizes of bit-vectors and extraction positions are known. This transformation system suggests a generalization for dealing with bit-vectors of unknown size and unknown extraction positions. Both solvers adhere to the principle of splitting bit-vectors only on demand, thereby making them quite effective in practice." } @Proceedings{LNCS-1522, editor = "Ganesh Gopalakrishnan and Phillip Windley", booktitle = "Formal methods in computer aided design: Second International Conference, {FMCAD}'98, Palo Alto, {CA}, {USA}, November 4--6, 1998: proceedings", title = "Formal methods in computer aided design: Second International Conference, {FMCAD}'98, Palo Alto, {CA}, {USA}, November 4--6, 1998: proceedings", volume = "1522", publisher = "Springer-Verlag Inc.", address = "New York, NY, USA", pages = "ix + 529 (or ix + 528??)", year = "1999", ISBN = "3-540-65191-8", LCCN = "TK7874.65 .F53 1998", bibdate = "Sat Jan 9 14:35:31 MST 1999", series = "Lecture Notes in Computer Science", acknowledgement = ack-nhfb, }
