—Conventional scan design imposes considerable area and delay overheads. To establish a scan chain in the test mode, multiplexers at the inputs of flip-flops and scan wires are...
The next generation of software systems will be highly distributed, component-based and service-oriented. They will need to operate in unattended mode and possibly in hostile envi...
Abstract—This paper studies the problem of distributed computation over a network of wireless sensors. While this problem applies to many emerging applications, to keep our discu...
