Abstract
Understanding the design of a device requi … Understanding the design of a device requires both knowledge of the general physical principles that determine its behavior and knowledge of its intended functions. However, the majority of work in model-based reasoning has focused on using either one of these types of knowledge alone. In order to use both types of knowledge in understanding a device design, one must represent the functional knowledge in such a way that it has a clear interpretation in terms of observed behavior. We propose a new formalism, Causal Functional Representation Language (CFRL), for representing device functions with well-defined semantics in terms of behavior. CFRL allows the specification of conditions that a behavior must satisfy, such as occurrence of temporal sequences of events and causal relations among them and the components. We have used CFRL as the basis for a functional verification program, which determines whether a behavior achieves an intended function. a behavior achieves an intended function.
