In sub-90nm process technology it becomes harder to control the fabrication process, which in turn causes variations between the design-time parameters and the fabricated paramete...
— Criticality and yield gradients are two crucial diagnostic metrics obtained from Statistical Static Timing Analysis (SSTA). They provide valuable information to guide timing op...

We present the implementation and analysis of a variation tolerant version of a switch-to-switch link in a NoC. The goal is to tolerate the effects of process variations on NoC ar...
Constant-coefficient multipliers are fundamental components in digital signal processing and arithmetic-based systems. Their verification, however, remains difficult and time-cons...
Token passing is a channel access technique used in several communication networks. Among them, one of the most effective solution for supporting both real-time traffic (synchron...
