Escaped errors in released silicon are growing in number due to the increasing complexity of modern processor designs and shrinking production schedules. Worsening the problem are ...
Abstract. Introducing a monitor on a system typically changes the system's behaviour by slowing the system down and increasing memory consumption. This may possibly result in ...

Late changes in silicon design (ECO) is a common although undesired practice. The need for ECO exists even in high-level design flows since bugs may occur in the specifications, ...
Complex information systems have numerous design variables that are systematically decided upon during the design process. In high-variability systems, some of these decisions are...
Software systems are constantly changing. Patches to fix bugs and patches to add features are all too common. Every change risks breaking a previously working system. Hence admini...
