The aim of this paper is to show a method that is able to detect a particular class of semantic inconsistencies in a rule-based system (RBS). A semantic inconsistency is defined by...
We consider the problem of finding an optimal clock schedule, i.e. optimal arrival times for clock signals at latches of a VLSI chip. We describe a general model which includes al...
Task graph scheduling has been found effective in performance prediction and optimization of parallel applications. A number of static scheduling algorithms have been proposed for...
The main objectives of Built-In Self Test (BIST) are the design of test pattern generator circuits which achieve the highest fault coverage, require the shortest sequence of test ...
To reduce manufacturing variation due to chemicalmechanical polishing and to improve yield, layout must be made uniform with respect to density criteria. This is achieved by layou...
