Abstract
An improved approach for designing and verifying electronic designs at different levels of abstractions is disclosed. An electronic design undergoes high level verification, where the results of the high level verification can be guaranteed to be correct at the RTL level. This can be implemented by ensuring that model consistency rules are followed to generate high level (enhanced transaction level) models and/or RTL data. In this way, properties that are verified at one level of abstraction will not need to be re-verified at the other level of abstraction.
