The effect of crosstalk errors is most significant in highperformance circuits, mandating at-speed testing for crosstalk defects. This paper describes a self-test methodology that...
Contemporary microprocessors implement many iterative algorithms. For example, the front-end of a microprocessor repeatedly fetches and decodes instructions while updating interna...

In this paper, we establish a theoretical framework for a new concept of scheduling called soft scheduling. In contrasts to the traditional schedulers referred as hard schedulers,...
The advent of portable and high-density devices has made power consumption a critical design concern. In this paper, we address the problem of reducing power consumption via gate-...
