Energy consumption is a critical design issue in real-time systems, especially in battery- operated systems. Maintaining high performance, while extending the battery life between...
Process technology and environment-induced variability of gates and wires in VLSI circuits make timing analyses of such circuits a challenging task. Process variation can have a s...
Increasingly, computer software must adapt dynamically to changing conditions. The correctness of adaptation cannot be rigorously addressed without precisely specifying the require...

Learning agents, whether natural or artificial, must update their internal parameters in order to improve their behavior over time. In reinforcement learning, this plasticity is ...
A structurally testable delay fault might become untestable in the functional mode of the circuit due to logic or timing constraints or both. Experimental data suggests that there...
