TL;DR: The new edition of Breuer-Friedman's Diagnosis and Reliable Design ofDigital Systems offers comprehensive and state-ofthe-art treatment of both testing and testable design.
Abstract: For many years, Breuer-Friedman's Diagnosis and Reliable Design ofDigital Systems was the most widely used textbook in digital system testing and testable design. Now, Computer Science Press makes available a new and greativ expanded edition. Incorporating a significant amount of new material related to recently developed technologies, the new edition offers comprehensive and state-ofthe-art treatment of both testing and testable design.

TL;DR: A distributed reconfigurable fabric inserted at RTL provides a debug platform that can be configured and operated post-silicon via the JTAG port and can be repeatedly reused to configure many debug structures such as assertions checkers, transaction identifiers, triggers, and event counters.
Abstract: In this paper we present a design-for-debug (DFD) reconfigurable infrastructure for SoCs to support at-speed in-system functional debug. A distributed reconfigurable fabric inserted at RTL provides a debug platform that can be configured and operated post-silicon via the JTAG port. The platform can be repeatedly reused to configure many debug structures such as assertions checkers, transaction identifiers, triggers, and event counters.

TL;DR: The first BIST approach for testing the programmable routing network in FPGAs is introduced, which detects opens in, and shorts among, wiring segments, and also faults affecting theprogrammable switches that configure the FPGA interconnect.
Abstract: We introduce the first BIST approach for testing the programmable routing network in FPGAs. Our method detects opens in, and shorts among, wiring segments, and also faults affecting the programmable switches that configure the FPGA interconnect. As a result, the BIST technique provides complete testing of interconnect faults.

TL;DR: This work presents an alternative to fault simulation, referred to as critical path tracing, that determines the faults detected by a set of tests using a backtracing algorithm starting at the primary outputs of a circuit.
Abstract: We present an alternative to fault simulation, referred to as critical path tracing, that determines the faults detected by a set of tests using a backtracing algorithm starting at the primary outputs of a circuit. Critical path tracing is an approximate method, but the approximations introduced occur seldom and do not affect its usefulness. This method is more efficient than conventional fault simulation.

TL;DR: Experimental results obtained from a large number of benchmarks indicate that application of the proposed conflict analysis techniques to SAT algorithms can be extremely effective for aLarge number of representative classes of SAT instances.
Abstract: This paper introduces GRASP (Generic seaRch Algorithm for the Satisfiability Problem), a new search algorithm for Propositional Satisfiability (SAT). GRASP incorporates several search-pruning techniques that proved to be quite powerful on a wide variety of SAT problems. Some of these techniques are specific to SAT, whereas others are similar in spirit to approaches in other fields of Artificial Intelligence. GRASP is premised on the inevitability of conflicts during the search and its most distinguishing feature is the augmentation of basic backtracking search with a powerful conflict analysis procedure. Analyzing conflicts to determine their causes enables GRASP to backtrack nonchronologically to earlier levels in the search tree, potentially pruning large portions of the search space. In addition, by "recording" the causes of conflicts, GRASP can recognize and preempt the occurrence of similar conflicts later on in the search. Finally, straightforward bookkeeping of the causality chains leading up to conflicts allows GRASP to identify assignments that are necessary for a solution to be found. Experimental results obtained from a large number of benchmarks indicate that application of the proposed conflict analysis techniques to SAT algorithms can be extremely effective for a large number of representative classes of SAT instances.

TL;DR: A classification of hardware Trojans and a survey of published techniques for Trojan detection are presented.
Abstract: Editor's note:Today's integrated circuits are vulnerable to hardware Trojans, which are malicious alterations to the circuit, either during design or fabrication. This article presents a classification of hardware Trojans and a survey of published techniques for Trojan detection.

TL;DR: Experimental results obtained from a large number of benchmarks, including many from the field of test pattern generation, indicate that application of the proposed conflict analysis techniques to SAT algorithms can be extremely effective for aLarge number of representative classes of SAT instances.
Abstract: This paper introduces GRASP (Generic seaRch Algorithm for the Satisfiability Problem), an integrated algorithmic framework for SAT that unifies several previously proposed search-pruning techniques and facilitates identification of additional ones. GRASP is premised on the inevitability of conflicts during search and its most distinguishing feature is the augmentation of basic backtracking search with a powerful conflict analysis procedure. Analyzing conflicts to determine their causes enables GRASP to backtrack non-chronologically to earlier levels in the search tree, potentially pruning large portions of the search space. In addition, by "recording" the causes of conflicts, GRASP can recognize and preempt the occurrence of similar conflicts later on in the search. Finally, straightforward bookkeeping of the causality chains leading up to conflicts allows GRASP to identify assignments that are necessary for a solution to be found.

TL;DR: This work examines the benefits and problems inherent in asynchronous computations, and in some of the more notable design methodologies, which include Huffman asynchronous circuits, burst-mode circuits, micropipelines, template-based and trace theory-based delay-insensitive circuits, signal transition graphs, change diagrams, and complication-based quasi-delay-insensitivity circuits.
Abstract: Asynchronous design has been an active area of research since at least the mid 1950's, but has yet to achieve widespread use. We examine the benefits and problems inherent in asynchronous computations, and in some of the more notable design methodologies. These include Huffman asynchronous circuits, burst-mode circuits, micropipelines, template-based and trace theory-based delay-insensitive circuits, signal transition graphs, change diagrams, and complication-based quasi-delay-insensitive circuits. >
