Progress in the fabrication of integrated circuits (ICs) enables smaller and smaller minimum feature sizes, so that more and more transistors can be realized per chip area. Digital circuits greatly benefit from the miniaturization. By contrast, analog circuits suffer from reduced precision when component sizes are decreased, because for decreased component sizes, the respective component values...

System-on-a-Chip LSIs (SoCs) have been widely used for many applications which include not only the field related to electronics but also new fields like architecture, agriculture, medicine and so on. Scale of such the LSIs has been more increasing for realizing multi-function and complex systems. Although the progress of the process technologies offers a lot of advantages over digital circuits...

Statistical analysis tasks are increasingly encountered in the design of digital circuits that implement complex Boolean functions. Examples include analyzing the impact of soft errors, estimating power consumption, and stochastic computation. Common simulation techniques such as quasiMonte Carlo simulation often converge too slowly for large circuits with many inputs, i.e., many dimensions. We...
