In this paper we present a new fault tolerant clock synchronization algorithm called the Fault Tolerant Daisy Chain algorithm. It is intended for internal clock synchronization of...
This paper proposes a model for calculating statistical gate-delay variation caused by intra-chip and inter-chip variability. As the variation of individual gate delays directly i...
— Extreme scaling practices in silicon technology are quickly leading to integrated circuit components with limited reliability, where phenomena such as early-transistor failures...

Reliability modeling and evaluation is expected to be one of the major issues in emerging nano-devices and beyond 22nm CMOS. Such devices would have inherent propensity for gate f...
