False Path and Clock Scheduling Based Yield-Aware Gate Sizing
Timing margin (slack) needs to be carefully managed to ensure a satisfactory timing yield. We propose a new design flow that combines a false-path-aware gate sizing and a statisti...

Degree-of-Freedom Analysis for Sequential Machines Targeting BIST Quality and Gate Area
| This paper reports the design of BIST structures for sequential machines. Testability of an FSM is limited due to the fact that some machine states remain unreachable and some ac...

Delay and Area Efficient First-level Cache Soft Error Detection and Correction
—Soft error rates are an increasing problem in modern VLSI circuits. Commonly used error correcting codes reduce soft error rates in large memories and second level caches but ar...

Optimizing yield in global routing
We present the first efficient approach to global routing that takes spacing-dependent costs into account and provably finds a near-optimum solution including these costs. We sh...
