Semiconductor Industry Responds to OneSpin’s Dare to Solve “The Sudoku Challenge” Holiday Puzzle

MUNICH, Germany and SAN JOSE, Calif., March 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

OneSpin® Solutions, provider of innovative formal verification solutions for highly reliable, digital integrated circuits (ICs), today announced four winners of its 2017–18 holiday puzzle. 

“The Sudoku Challenge” asked engineers to use a formal verification tool to find the solution to the hardest Sudoku puzzle in the world and prove that the solution is unique.

Winners, all of whom used formal verification software to find the solution, are:

  • Phil Barker from Infineon, recipient of the Laurel Wreath prize for the solution garnering the most votes from users
  • Axis’ Lars Viklund, who triumphed with the Golden Sickle prize for the most elegant solution
  • Holger Busch of Infineon, whose speedy solution won the Magic Carpet prize for the shortest runtime
  • Anthony Wood at Imagination, awarded the Team Player prize for his kind and encouraging submission message

All four will receive an Amazon Echo Plus.

"The solutions showed different coding styles and verification strategies from some of the best formal experts in the world," notes Sergio Marchese, OneSpin's technical marketing manager, who oversaw the competition. "This challenge is fun and a valuable learning opportunity for both expert and novice formal verification engineers. Rarely do we have the opportunity to compare so many elegant and creative approaches to a single verification problem."
