New Algorithms and Architectures for Post-silicon Validation New Algorithms and Architectures for Post-silicon Validation

To identify design errors that escape pre-silicon verification, post-silicon validation is becoming an important step in the implementation flow of digital integrated circuits. While many debug problems are tackled on testers, there are hard-to-find design errors that are activated only in-system. A key challenge during in-system debugging is to acquire data from internal circuit’s nodes in rea...

Editorial: The Post-Exome Era

The Iranian Rehabilitation Journal (IRJ) invites research papers on the genetic basis of single gene and complex disorders. This vastly dynamic branch of science will complement the multidisciplinary wealth of expertise in the fields of social welfare and rehabilitation. The past few years have witnessed outstanding research projects on the genetic causes of numerous debilitating disorders, suc...

Guest Editors' Introduction: Multicore SoC Validation with Transaction-Level Models

FUNCTIONAL VERIFICATION IS widely acknowledged as a major bottleneck in today’s SoC design methodology. In spite of such extensive efforts, many SoC designs fail at the very first use (silicon failures) as a result of functional errors. The complexity of functional verification is expected to increase further because of the combined effects of increasing design complexity and the recent paradig...
