digital cameras, hyperspectral, multispectral, sensors, simulation, modelling, calibration This paper describes (a) models for digital cameras, (b) the calibration of the spectral response of a camera and (c) the performance of an image capture simulator. The general model underlying the simulator assumes that the image capture device contains multiple classes of sensors with different spectral...

We present the calibration of a device simulator for a 0.25 ftm CMOS technology using response surface methodology. For this process several measurements for different gate lengths (0.2-4.0 /jm) were made. Care was taken to eliminate the statistical variations typical to sub-micron devices by measuring several chips on the the same wafer and taking an average sample. The simulations carried out...

High inter- and intra-laboratory variability exists for the single-breath diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (D(L,CO)) test. To detect small changes in diffusing capacity in multicentre clinical trials, accurate measurements are essential. The present study assessed whether regular D(L,CO) simulator testing maintained or improved instrument accuracy and reduced variability in mu...

In this paper, we propose a network simulator for smartspace. Our simulator provides the following functions. (1) Realistic simulation of wireless communication; (2) Software compatibility for allowing code for real device to run on the simulator without modifying it; (3) Simulating network consisting of virtual and real devices. To realize the above (1), the simulator simulates radio propagati...

Considerable effort was spent on our two-dimensional device simulator MINIMOS-NT to get it ready for simulation of devices with high complexity in respect to materials, geometries, etc. Many of the existing physical models (band gap, mobility, thermal conductivity, energy relaxation times, specific heat, etc.) were refined, some of them were replaced by promising new ones, and many new models w...

We have investigated three-dimensional (3D) e ects in sub-micron GaAs MESFETs using a parallel Monte Carlo device simulator, PMC-3D [1]. The parallel algorithm couples a standard Monte Carlo particle simulator for the Boltzmann equation with a 3D Poisson solver using spatial decomposition of the device domain onto separate processors. The scaling properties of the small signal parameters have b...

This paper presents a novel 3D thermal simulation tool for semiconductor integrated devices. The simulator is used to automatically generate an accurate 3D physical model of the device to be simulated from layout information. The simulator produces an appropriate mesh of the device based on a rectangular block structure. The mesh is automatically created such that a fine mesh is produced around...
