This paper is concerned with statically analyzing the susceptibility of arbitrary combinational circuits to single event upsets that are becoming a significant concern for reliabi...
Soft errors, once only of concern in memories, are beginning to affect logic as well. Determining the soft error rate (SER) of a combinational circuit involves three main masking ...
— Clock-gating and power-gating have proven to be very effective solutions for reducing dynamic and static power, respectively. The two techniques may be coupled in such a way th...

Traditional circuit design focuses on optimizing the static critical paths no matter how infrequently these paths are exercised dynamically. Circuit optimization is then tuned to ...
