Recommendations
Recovery-Aware Proactive TSV Repair for Electromigration Lifetime Enhancement in 3-D ICs
Electromigration (EM) becomes a major reliability concern in 3-D integrated circuits (3-D ICs). To mitigate this problem, a typical solution is to use through-silicon via (TSV) redundancy in a reactive manner, maintaining the operability of a 3-D chip ...
An Interconnect Reliability-Driven Routing Technique for Electromigration Failure Avoidance
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, design reliability is becoming increasingly important. A major design reliability concern arises from electromigration which refers to the transport of material caused by ion movement in interconnects. ...
Reliability Analysis of Fault-Tolerant Bus-Based Interconnection Networks
Multi-processor systems need interconnection networks (INs) in order to make the connection among the processors, memory modules, and nodes. Bus interconnection network is the simplest and least expensive one among all the INs. Therefore, bus network is ...
