Test generation of subcircuits that can be run simultaneously should not share the same multiplexer in the process of test generation. The test scheduling problem is reduced to the vertex coloring of the PTG; and then the test scheduling problem is found to be solvable in quadratic time. Certainly, the number of sequential test generation events is equal to the vertex chromatic number of the PTG. The problem is how to minimize the vertex chromatic number of the PTG. On the basis of these results, an integer linear programming model is offered to design for maximum parallelism of the test generation problem, which minimizes the vertex chromatic number of the PTG, and thereby, maximizes the parallelism of the problem.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":448373,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 7th International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126063978","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 suggests that communication costs required to support logic simulation are small compared to the cost of deciding which messages need not be sent.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":448373,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 7th International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122463318","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}

The multiobjective approach, which models each objective by a scalar-valued criterion and attempts to find all non-dominated solutions, is a natural and efficient alternative to the conventional practice of combining all objectives into a single optimization criterion. In this paper we illustrate the multiobjective search approach MObj By applying it on two well known problems in VLSI, namely the scheduling problem in high level synthesis and the channel routing problem in layout synthesis. The efficiency of MObj and its linear space version SMObj is demonstrated by comparing their performances with multiobjective generalizations of the single objective strategies A* and DFBB.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":448373,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 7th International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123477114","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}

An efficient hybrid heuristic algorithm is proposed to solve this combinatorial optimization problem, which is based on the combination of the probabilistic hill-climbing technique and a greedy method. This heuristic is tested experimentally with respect to four existing algorithms. As test cases, five benchmark problems from the literature as well as randomly generated problem instances are considered. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid algorithm, on the average, performs better than other heuristics in terms of the required computation time and/or the quality of solution.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":448373,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 7th International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126504697","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}

The proposed technique reduces the test application time by a substantial amount. To implement this idea, the product lines are re-arranged according to the number of cp devices. After re-arranging, if two consecutive product lines differ by more than one cp device then a single product line is added in between these two lines in contrast to multiple ones. The test pattern generator and response evaluator circuits are simple and consist of mainly shift registers and counters which reduce the delay per test as opposed to conventional parity checkers. The proposed technique has extremely high fault coverage. All the single faults and most of the multiple faults are covered.

A novel pipelining technique in NPCPL (normal process complementary pass transistor logic) allows fine grain pipelining with minimal overhead of area and latency. This is in contrast to conventional approaches where highly pipelined designs are constrained by area and latency overhead of pipeline latches. A two-stage full adder is employed in a carry-save array architecture. The 0.95 mm/spl times/0.87 mm multiplier core supports a throughput of 600 MHz with a power dissipation of 0.9 Watt. Since such a high speed clock cannot be routed from the external world, the clock is generated on-chip. The on-chip clock generator ensures generation of non-overlapping clocks under all conditions of process parameter variations. This along with proper design of clock buffers and clock distribution network minimises clock skew to allow high speed clocking.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":448373,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 7th International Conference on VLSI Design","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130462674","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}
