Functional verification is widely acknowledged as the bottleneck in the hardware design cycle. This paper addresses one of the main challenges of simulation based verification (or...
Current technology trends have led to the growing impact of both inter-die and intra-die process variations on circuit performance. While it is imperative to model parameter varia...
Physical phenomena such as temperature have an increasingly important role in performance and reliability of modern process technologies. This trend will only strengthen with futu...
