Reliability of nanometer circuits is becoming a major concern in today’s VLSI chip design due to interferences from multiple noise sources as well as radiation-induced soft erro...
The recent past has seen a tremendous increase in the size of design circuits that can be implemented in a single FPGA. These large design sizes significantly impact cycle time du...
: In a component-based development process the selection of components is an activity that takes place over multiple lifecycle phases that span from requirement specifications thro...
Extensive software-based simulation continues to be the mainstream methodology for functional verification of designs. To optimize the use of limited simulation resources, coverag...
