Summary:Abstract: "We describe exploratory efforts to design and verify a compiler for a formally verified microprocessor as one aspect of the eventual goal of building totally verified systems. Together with a formal proof of correctness for the microprocessor, this yields a precise and rigorously established link between the semantics of the source language and the execution of compiled code by the fabricated microchip. we describe, in particular: (1) how the limitations of real hardware influenced this proof; and (2) how the general framework provided by higher-order logic was used to formalize the compiler correctness problem for a hierarchially structured language."
