Typically, a combination of manual and automated transformations is applied when algorithms for digital signal processing are adapted for energy and performance-efficient embedded systems. This poses severe verification problems. Verification becomes easier after converting the code into dynamic single-assignment form (DSA). This paper describes a method to prove equivalence between two programs in DSA where subscripts to array variables and loop bounds are (piecewise) affine expressions. For such programs, geometric modeling can be used and it can be shown, for groups of elements at once, that the outputs in both programs are the same function of the inputs.
