It has been widely recognized that the dynamic range information of an application can be exploited to reduce the datapath bitwidth of either processors or ASICs, and therefore th...
Input vector control (IVC) technique utilizes the stack effect in CMOS circuit to apply the minimum leakage vector (MLV) to the circuit at the sleep mode to reduce leakage. Additi...
Device and interconnect fabrics at the nanoscale will have a density of defects and susceptibility to transient faults far exceeding those of current silicon technologies. In this...

For a space compactor, degradation of fault detection capability caused by the masking effects from unknown values is much more serious than that caused by error masking (i.e. ali...
