The location of a stopping point is dependent on the statistical model one chooses to describe the coverage behavior during verification. In this paper, we present dynamic Bayesian (DB) and confidence-based dynamic Bayesian (CDB) stopping rules for behavioral VHDL model verification. The statistical assumptions of the proposed stopping rules are based on experimental evaluation of probability distribution functions and correlation functions. Fourteen behavioral VHDL models were experimented with to determine the high efficiency of the proposed stopping rules over the existing ones. Results show that the DB and the CDB stopping rules outperform all the existing stopping rules with an average improvement of at least 69% in coverage per testing patterns used.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87567786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional manipulation techniques are based on binary decision diagrams (BDDs) and SAT (Boolean satisfiability) solvers. In this paper, we study the relation between the two procedures and show how the number of backtracks obtained in the Davis-Putnam (DP) procedure is linked to the number of paths in the BDD. We utilize this relation to devise a method that uses BDD variable ordering techniques to run the DP procedure. Experimental results confirm that the proposed method results in a dramatic decrease in the number of backtracks and in the time needed to prove the Boolean satisfiability problem as well.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76189605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In deep sub-micron technologies, as the wires are spaced ever closer and signal rise and fall times go into the sub-nanosecond region, increased crosstalk has implications for the data throughput and signal integrity. Depending on the data correlation on the coupled lines, the delay can either decrease or increase. We show that in uniform coupled lines, the response for several important switching patterns has a dominant pole characteristic. The effect of repeater insertion including optimal repeater insertion for minimising delay with worst-case cross-talk, and area constrained optimisation is considered. All equations are checked against a dynamic circuit simulator (SPECTRE).","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88588742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examine in particular the impact of gate tunneling on the history dependence of inverter delays. The examination reveals key requirements for capturing the history effect in SPICE modeling. This study suggests that gate tunneling has a strong impact on the delay range and should be considered in SOI circuit simulation. It is crucial for circuit, designers to understand and contain the hysteretic delay variations caused by gate current. An accurate SPICE model that includes the oxide tunneling mechanism should be used to quantify the effect without undermining the performance benefit of a partially depleted SOI technology. BSIMPD is one model that attempts to bridge the gap between advanced SOI technologies and circuit design. With its built-in floating-body, self-heating and body-contact modules, BSIMPD captures SOI-specific effects and therefore is able to raise the design quality of PD SOI chips. BSIMPD has been implemented in Berkeley SPICE3f4 and other commercial SPICE simulators. It may also be the basis for computing the look-up tables used for higher-level timing simulation.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85616100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is done by showing the cost-benefit analyses among other criteria. To ensure success, testing must be planned and executed within an Earned Value Management (EVM) paradigm as the experiment is conducted on a statistical-process controlled mindset. The Stopping Rule (MESAT) is applied to an actual embedded-chip software development cycle to show potential gains compared to archaic testing methods or none that were used. The result is that a considerable percentage of the particular testing effort could have been saved under usual circumstances, had the testing been planned and executed under EVM with the MESAT algorithm.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84760268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In colloidal computing, simple per computational particles are dispersed into a communication medium which is inexpensive, (perhaps) unreliable, yet sufficiently fast. This type of clustering into computationally intensive kernels with loose inter-particle communication, but tight intra-particle communication is typical not only for the underlying hardware, but also for the actual application which runs on it. We believe that the colloidal model is appropriate to describe the next generation of embedded systems. For these systems, a significantly better design quality can be obtained via run-time trade-offs and application-driven adaptability, as opposed to classical systems where optimizations are sought in a rather static manner.","PeriodicalId":20510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88899528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially the DNL dependence on the CMOS process variation can be almost eliminated. The design method has been incorporated into a software package and the 2/sup n/ - 1 optimized TIQ comparator layouts are generated as an output of the software package.
