    | • | We
    are developing a simulator for SDL 
 |  | 
   
    |  | specifications 
 |  | 
   
    |  | 
   
    | • | We
    are using ACL2 for the development and 
 |  | 
   
    |  | verification
    of the simulator 
 |  | 
   
    |  | 
   
    | • | The
    goal is to provide a framework for 
 |  | 
   
    |  | verification
    of SDL specifications using a 
 |  | 
   
    |  | theorem
    prover 
 |  | 
   
    |  | 
   
    | • | The
    simulator also helps in testing of 
 |  | 
   
    |  | implementations:
    acts as a test driver and 
 |  | 
   
    |  | helps compute expected results for test cases
