— Ethernet over SONET (EoS) is a popular approach for interconnecting geographically distant Ethernet segments using a SONET transport infrastructure. It typically uses virtual c...
Constrained random simulation is the main workhorse in today’s hardware verification flows. It requires the random generation of input stimuli that obey a set of declaratively...
The present paper proposes a new method for detecting arbitrary faults in a functional circuit when the set of codewords is limited and known in advance. The method is based on im...
