Simulation and verification using electronic design automation (EDA) tools are key steps in the design process for communication and signal processing systems. The synchronous dat...
Abstract. We extend the setting of Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) by introducing a theory of costs C, where it is possible to model and reason about resource consumption and ...
This paper describes the integration of the Berkeley Architectural Walkthrough Program with the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s CFAST fire simulator. The integ...
As VLSI technology scales toward 65nm and beyond, both timing and power performance of integrated circuits are increasingly affected by process variations. In practice, people oft...
The delay fault test pattern set generated by timing unaware commercial ATPG tools mostly affects very short paths, thereby increasing the escape chance of smaller delay defects. ...
