Achieving efficiency in integrated circuit (IC) design while maintaining design quality is not just a goal, but a necessity. Designers constantly strive to strike a balance between ever-tightening ...

Most advanced node system-on-chip (SoC) designs are very large, and very complex. They typically contain many blocks and intellectual property (IP) that perform specialized functions, such as ...

Planning for packaging and interconnections in the early phases of a design project eliminates the chances of poor design degrading long-term reliability. The integrity of system design depends on the ...

Several important series of balanced incomplete block designs can be derived from orthogonal factorial designs. One is the series on balanced lattice of Yates (1936); refer to page 396 of Cochran and ...

IP core providers are increasingly aware of the need to protect their investment from either unintended or unlicensed usage of their IP core blocks. This would require identification of IP core blocks ...
