چکیده

Accurate age modeling, and fast, yet robust reliability sign-off emerged as mandatory constraints in IC design for advanced process technology nodes. This paper proposes a device-level aging assessment and prediction model using the signal slope as aging quantifier, that accounts not only for the intrinsic self-degradation but also for the influence of the surrounding circuit topology. Experimental results indicate the validity of slope as aging quantifier and that aging is underestimated when topology influence is disregarded. 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Context-aware Modeling for Spatio-temporal Data Transmitted from a Wireless Body Sensor Network

Context-aware systems must be interoperable and work across different platforms at any time and in any place. Context data collected from wireless body area networks (WBAN) may be heterogeneous and imperfect, which makes their design and implementation difficult. In this research, we introduce a model which takes the dynamic nature of a context-aware system into consideration. This model is con...

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments

Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...

CAMAC: a context-aware mandatory access control model

Mandatory access control models have traditionally been employed as a robust security mechanism in multilevel security environments such as military domains. In traditional mandatory models, the security classes associated with entities are context-insensitive. However, context-sensitivity of security classes and flexibility of access control mechanisms may be required especially in pervasive c...

A context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments

Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...

Cross-Layer Approaches for an Aging-Aware Design Space Exploration for Microprocessors

With the continuous scaling of CMOS technologies, maintaining the microprocessor reliability becomes a major design challenge. In particular, accelerated transistor aging is a serious reliability concern, as it considerably reduces the operational system lifetime. To address this issue, in this work cross-layer solutions for aging modeling, simulation and mitigation are proposed, to be able to ...
