Process variations in modern VLSI technologies are growing in both magnitude and dimensionality. To assess performance variability, complex simulation and performance models param...
Available techniques for testing core-based systems-on-a-chip (SOCs) do not provide a systematic means for synthesising low-overhead test architectures and compact test solutions....
