One of the difficult problems which core-based systemon-chip (SoC) designs face is test access. For testing the cores in a SoC, a special mechanism is required, since they are no...
Wireplanning is an approach in which the timing of inputoutput paths is planned before modules are specified, synthesized or sized. If these global wires are optimally segmented ...
