The integrated circuits design flow is rapidly moving towards higher description levels. However, test-related activities are lacking behind this trend, mainly since effective faul...
Even though high-level hardware synthesis from dataflow graphs becomes popular in designing DSP systems, currently used dataflow models are inefficient to deal with emerging multi...
Designer productivity and design predictability are vital factors for successful embedded system design. Shrinking time-to-market and increasing complexity of these systems requir...
High-level test pattern generation is today a widely investigated research topic. The present paper proposes a fully automated, simulation-based ATPG system, to address test patte...
Design closure becomes hard to achieve at physical layout stage due to the emergence of long global interconnects. Consequently, interconnect planning needs to be integrated in hi...
