In this paper, we present a test pattern generation algorithm aiming at signal integrity faults on long interconnects. This is achieved by considering the effect of inputs and par...
Run-length codes and their variants have recently been shown to be very effective for compressing system-on-achip (SOC) test data. In this paper, we analyze the Golomb code, the c...

Power supply noise is a strong function of the switching activities of the circuit modules. Peak power supply noise can be significantly reduced by judiciously arranging the modu...
A new approach to synthesizing totally symmetric Boolean functions is presented. First, a novel cellular array is introduced for synthesizing unate symmetric functions. Using this...

à This paper addresses the problem of static and dynamic variable voltage scheduling of multi-rate periodic task graphs (i.e., tasks with precedence relationships) and aperiodic t...
This paper introduces a dynamic layout optimization strategy to minimize the number of cycles spent in memory accesses in a cache-based memory environment. In this approach, a giv...

We propose a timing-oriented logic optimization technique called Generalized De Morgan (GDM) transform, that integrates gate resizing, net buffering and De Morgan transformation. ...
