چکیده

Timing analysis plays a vital role in chip design, which analyze whether a chip design meets the timing constraints. The main objectives of timing analysis are speed and accuracy. There are two engines for timing analysis namely Statistical Timing Analysis (STA) and Statistical Static Timing Analysis (SSTA). VLSI CAD has been gaining a lot of interest in both STA and SSTA. As technology continues to advance deeper in to the nanometer regime, a tight control on the process parameters is increasingly difficult. To account these process parameters which are probabilistic in nature while performing timing analysis SSTA is preferred. The main goal of SSTA is to improve the accuracy without any reduction in speed by considering process variations. This paper presents a survey of SSTA approaches and techniques for improving accuracy and speed by considering the topological correlations and spatial correlations.

Procedural Modeling as an Analytical Tool for 3D Survey in Urban Design Assessment

This paper examines procedural modeling as a tool for 3D modeling creation. Procedural modeling historically has been used for 3D visualization of natural features, but with the release of the software CityEngine in 2008, the technology can easily be adopted also in problem domains dealing with urban environments. Then, we will examine and compare two types of modeling, traditional and proc...

IMPLEMENTATION OF EXTENDED KALMAN FILTER TO REDUCE NON CYCLO-STATIONARY NOISE IN AERIAL GAMMA RAY SURVEY

Gamma-ray detection has an important role in the enhancement the nuclear safety and provides a proper environment for applications of nuclear radiation. To reduce the risk of exposure, aerial gamma survey is commonly used as an advantage of the distance between the detection system and the radiation sources. One of the most important issues in aerial gamma survey is the detection noise. Various...
