: With technology scaling, elevated temperatures caused by increased power density create a critical bottleneck modulating the circuit operation. With the advent of FinFET technolo...
A deductive technique is presented that uses voltage testing for the diagnosis of single bridging faults between two gate input or output lines and is applicable to combinational ...
An accurate model for pre-placement wire length estimation can be a useful tool during the physical design of integrated circuits. In this paper, an a priori wire length estimatio...
There is a growing need for accurate power models at the system level. Memory structures such as caches, Branch Target Buffers (BTBs), and register files occupy significant area i...
