Abstract—As the logic capacity of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) increases, they are increasingly being used to implement large arithmetic-intensive applications, which ...
As silicon process technology scales deeper into the nanometer regime, hardware defects are becoming more common. Such defects are bound to hinder the correct operation of future ...
