An in-circuit diagnostic test structure triggered by a light pulse captures logic states on-chip with picosecond timing accuracy, and the results read out via a scan chain thus pr...
This paper explores defects found in a high volume microprocessor when shipping at a low defect level. A brief description of the manufacturing flow along with definition of DPM i...
We describe an application of data mining and decision analysis to the problem of die-level functional test in integrated circuit manufacturing. Integrated circuits are fabricated...
—Developers often change software in ways that cause tests to fail. When this occurs, developers must determine whether failures are caused by errors in the code under test or in...

We present Anticipatory Memory Allocation (AMA), a new method to build kernel code that is robust to memoryallocation failures. AMA avoids the usual difficulties in handling allo...
