This paper quantifies the approximation error in Clark’s approach [1] to computing the maximum (max) of Gaussian random variables; a fundamental operation in statistical timing...
This paper proposes a simulation-based soft error estimation methodology for computer systems. Accumulating soft error rates (SERs) of all memories in a computer system results in...
As transistor counts keep increasing and clock frequencies rise, high power consumption is becoming one of the most important obstacles, preventing further scaling and performance...

This paper is concerned with statically analyzing the susceptibility of arbitrary combinational circuits to single event upsets that are becoming a significant concern for reliabi...
— Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) has the potential to become one of the main show-stoppers of circuit reliability in nanometer scale devices due to its deleterious ...
