At-speed testing of high-speed circuits is becoming increasingly difficult with external testers due to the growing gap between design and tester performance, growing cost of high...
Efficient energy and performance estimation of embedded software is a critical part of any system-level design flow. Macromodeling based estimation is an attempt to speed up estim...
Long design cycles due to the inability to predict silicon realities is a well-known problem that plagues analog/RF integrated circuit product development. As this problem worsens...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
The challenge of verifying a modern microprocessor design is an overwhelming one: Increasingly complex micro-architectures combined with heavy time-to-market pressure have forced ...
