Test data volume and scan power are two major concerns in SoC test. In this paper we present an alternative run-length coding method through scan chain reconfiguration to reduce b...
We study the impact of backbones in optimization and approximation problems. We show that some optimization problems like graph coloring resemble decision problems, with problem h...
Embedded systems have an ever-increasing need for optimizing compilers to produce high quality codes with a limited general purpose register set. Either memory or registers are use...
Improving testability during the early stages of high-level synthesis has several benefits including reduced test hardware overheads, reduced test costs, reduced design iterations...

: This paper shows how the Asynchronous Backtracking (Yokoo et al., 1998) algorithm, a well known distributed constraint satisfaction algorithm, produces unnecessary messages and i...
