We propose the redundancy identification of wire replacement faults. The solutions rely on the satisfiability (SAT) formulation of redundancy identification, augmented with the me...
We describe a built-in test pattern generation method for scan circuits. The method is based on partitioning and storage of test sets. Under this method, a precomputed test set is...
We present a methodology and algorithms for automatic refinement from a given design specification to an architecture model based on decisions in architecture exploration. An arch...
Choosing the right methodology is a significant step towards successful VLSI designs. Traditional methodologies and tools are no longer adequate to handle large and complex design...
Embedded DRAM (eDRAM) power-energy estimation is presented for system-on-a-chip (SOC) applications. The main feature is the signal swing based analytic (SSBA) model, which improve...
With the projected significant growth in mobile internet and multimedia services, there is a strong demand for nextgeneration appliances capable of wireless image communication. O...
This paper presents the applicability of a cosimulation methodology based on an object-oriented simulation environment, to multi-domain and multi-language systems design. This met...
This paper presents a new method to compute the probability distribution of the delay of a combinational circuit and uses it obtain an estimate of the yield of the process that ma...
As a basic cell of arithmetic circuits, a one-bit full adder and a counter are usually used. Minimizing power consumption of these components is a key issue for low-power circuit ...
Directed test program-based verification or formal verification methods are usually quite ineffective on large cachecoherent, non-uniform memory access (CC-NUMA) multiprocessors b...
