In this paper, we examine the need for formal sequential equivalence checking across pairs of RTL models. We present scenarios that call for modifying the sequential behavior of RTL models while ...

Systems on chip (SoC) and processor design teams are challenged to meet aggressive power, performance and area requirements. As chip complexity grows, teams must verify thousands of lines of code to ...

A class of sequential designs for estimating the percentiles of a quantal response curve is proposed. Its updating rule is based on an efficient summary of all of the data available via a parametric ...

The increasing interest in Bayesian group sequential design is due to its potential to reinforce efficiency in clinical trials, shorten drug development time, and enhance the accuracy of statistical ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Different design approaches, techniques, and architectures are widely used for synchronous sequential machines. In ...

In clinical trials with sequential patient entry, fixed sample size designs are unjustified on ethical grounds and sequential designs are often impracticable. One solution is a group sequential design ...

Design for testability (DFT) works to make a circuit more testable to ensure that it was manufactured correctly. Alfred Crouch explains the purpose of DFT in his book, Design-For-Test for Digital ICs ...
