As system integration evolves and tighter design constraints must be met, it becomes necessary to account for the non-ideal behavior of all the elements in a system. For high-spee...

This paper develops an improved approach for hierarchical functional test generation for complex chips. In order to deal with the increasing complexity of functional test generati...
Modern microprocessors schedule instructions dynamically in order to exploit instruction-level parallelism. It is necessary to increase instruction window size for improving instr...
This paper examines the effect of technology scaling and microarchitectural trends on the rate of soft errors in CMOS memory and logic circuits. We describe and validate an end-to...
