— Caches, block memories, predictors, state tables, and other forms of on-chip memory are continuing to consume a greater portion of processor designs with each passing year. Mak...
We present a mathematical model for the problem of scheduling tests for core-based system-on-chip (SOC) VLSI designs. Given a set of tests for each core in the SOC and a set of te...
Due to the roaring power dissipation and gaining popularity of 3D integration, thermal dissipation has been a critical concern of modern VLSI design. The availability for chip-lev...
With technology scaling, power supply and threshold voltage continue to decrease to satisfy high performance and low power requirements. In the past, subthreshold CMOS circuits ha...

—Logical initializability is the property of a gate-level circuit whereby it can be driven to a unique start state when simulated by a three-valued (0, 1, ) simulator. In practic...
