Since pre-silicon functional verification is insufficient to detect all design errors, re-spins are often needed due to malfunctions that escape into the silicon. This paper pre...
One of the most challenging problems in post-silicon validation is to identify those errors that cause prohibitive extra delay on speedpaths in the circuit under debug (CUD) and o...
Modern IC designs have reached unparalleled levels of complexity, resulting in more and more bugs discovered after design tape-out However, so far only very few EDA tools for post...
Abstract—In two recent contributions [1], [2], we have provided a comparative analysis of various optimization algorithms, which can be used for atomic location estimation, and s...

A virtual duplex system (VDS) can be used to increase safety without the use of structural redundancy on a single machine. If a deterministic program P is calculating a given func...
