✦ Synopsis

This paper describes a new CAD tool, FTROM -Fault-Tolerant ROM compiler, which synthesizes layout geometries of fault-tolerant ROM modules with flexible, user-specified geometry and CMOS design-rule parameters. This physical design tool produces high-quality built-in self-testable (BIST) and fault-tolerant ROM layouts and uses a novel, minimum-delay overhead approach for fault-tolerance. A tool like FTROMeliminates the high cost of external testing of embedded ROM macros with I/O pins that are difficult to control and observe.

This paper describes nagging, a technique for parallelizing search in a heterogeneous distributed computing environment. Nagging exploits the speedup anomaly often observed when parallelizing problems by playing multiple reformulations of the problem or portions of the problem against each other. Na

We investigate fault-tolerant routing schemes which aim at using low number of virtual channels in wormhole-routed mesh networks. The faults under consideration are rectangular block faults, which are suitable for modeling faults on board level in networks with grid structures. There is no restricti
