Post-silicon validation has recently drawn designers' attention due to its increasing impacts on the VLSI design cycle and cost. One key feature of the post-silicon validatio...
In this paper, we compare embedded-DRAM (eDRAM) testing to both SRAM testing and commodity-DRAM testing, since an eDRAM macro uses DRAM cells with an SRAM interface. We first star...
Bounded Model Checking (BMC) based on Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) procedures has recently gained popularity as an alternative to BDD-based model checking techniques for finding b...

For a space compactor, degradation of fault detection capability caused by the masking effects from unknown values is much more serious than that caused by error masking (i.e. ali...
Design and verification of systems at the Register-Transfer (RT) or behavioral level require the ability to reason at higher levels of abstraction. Difference logic consists of an...
