Generation and Verification: Human-Agent Collaboration for Safety-Critical Automotive Software Engineering

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces a coding assistant tailored for safety‑critical automotive software, offering generate, edit, and verify tools via the Model Context Protocol. It customizes a large language model through prompt engineering and fine‑tuning on a dataset of automotive production code linked to requirements and UML behavior. In a two‑week pilot, developers favored the verify tool and the prompt‑engineered model, noting fewer MISRA violations in C and better architectural conformance in C++.

MAGS: Multi-agent Auto-formalization Guarantees Safety for Agentic Outputs

The paper introduces MAGS, a multi-agent framework that automatically generates executable programs with formal safety guarantees. MAGS translates LLM-generated code into the verification-aware language Dafny, repairs any safety violations using verifier feedback, and then compiles the verified code back into executable form. Evaluations on 220 diverse examples—including CUDA kernels, terminal scripts, and robotic-arm tasks—show a 100% success rate in producing programs that meet frozen safety specifications, with additional safety and functional tests confirming strong performance across domains.

A Survey on LLM-Integrated Hardware Design Verification

The paper surveys how large language models (LLMs) are being used in hardware verification, covering tasks such as assertion generation, testbench creation, bug localization, and formal reasoning. It categorizes the literature by methodology, verification goal, tool interaction, benchmarks, and evaluation metrics, and distinguishes between inference-time techniques (prompting, retrieval, structured reasoning, agentic workflows) and training-time adaptation. The authors highlight that LLMs excel as semantic reasoning, search, and orchestration components within verification workflows, yet emphasize the need for semantic alignment, scalable integration, generalization, and rigorous evaluation to ensure true verification correctness.
