With rapid growth in VLSI technology, SoC became more complex as more and more IP's or partitions are packed inside the SoC. Defect screening at every node inside the core/IP in SoC and its interface becomes a challenge. Various test methods are proposed for better test coverage in industry. One of the widely used and popular approaches is IEEE P1500[1] [2], which has a scalable architecture that comes with TAM (Test Access Mechanism) and enables the switching between internal and external core testing. IEEE P1500 test methodology suggests, the core/partition to be fully wrapped for internal and external testing. This process introduces silicon bugs if any test sensitive ports are wrapped. In this paper we propose a signal agnostic scalable wrapper architecture which helps core/partition to be fully wrapped without any restriction on ports which results in best coverage and ensures a bug free silicon. This paper also discusses the integration of the proposed architecture and design in SoC and its pattern generation flow. Finally, we compare the results with existing wrapper architecture[3] and demonstrate how the proposed architecture ensures bug free silicon with enhanced test coverage.

Urban managers are faced with complex decisions, including the decision to select a suitable location for service centers, based on several conflicting criteria noted. The purpose of this research is a comparative study on site selection methods for modeling hospital locating. According to the present article, new locations were found to manage better and completeAmol city coverage with eight specified criteria. The research area in terms of proximity to major roads, green spaces, fire stations and distance from the river, industrial land uses, education land uses, hospitals and sport land uses has been studied. As well as for weighing the criteria, the model of AHP was implemented. Then, using the TOPSIS model in ArcGIS software, the valuation of standards was analyzed, and suitable maps were created that show the best place for the hospital building. In the next step, using the Fuzzy logic model in ArcGIS, another appropriate map is prepared, and the results of the two models have been compared together. The results revealed that the Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) system with GIS could be an effective hospital site selection tool. Anyway, there are some differences between the results of the models. Fuzzy logic is better suited to the hospital locating. The location of hospitals away from existing spaces in the Fuzzy logic model shows this model's ability in comparison with the TOPSIS model.

Athletic robots demand a whole-body actuation system design that utilizes motors up to the boundaries of their performance. However, creating such robots poses challenges of integrating design principles and reasoning of practical design choices. This paper presents a design framework that guides designers to find optimal design choices to create an actuation system that can rapidly generate torques and velocities required to achieve a given set of tasks, by minimizing inertia and leveraging cooperation between actuators. The framework serves as an interactive tool for designers who are in charge of providing design rules and candidate components such as motors, reduction mechanism, and coupling mechanisms between actuators and joints. A binary integer linear optimization explores design combinations to find optimal components that can achieve a set of tasks. The framework is demonstrated with 200 optimal design studies of a biped with 5-degree-of-freedom (DoF) legs, focusing on the effect of achieving multiple tasks (walking, lifting), constraining the mass budget of all motors in the system and the use of coupling mechanisms. The result provides a comprehensive view of how design choices and rules affect reflected inertia, copper loss of motors, and force capability of optimal actuation systems.

Participants' feelings and impressions utilizing electroencephalography (EEG) and the effectiveness of code are compared for different types of programming sessions. EEG information is obtained as an alternate viewpoint during three programming sessions (solo, pair, and mob programming) MindWave Mobile 2 (brainwave detector) is equipped to collect the attention levels, meditation levels, and EEG brainwaves. These data are utilized to distinguish efficiencies, weaknesses, and points of interest by programming session. The results provide preliminary information to distinguish between the three sessions, but further studies are necessary to make firm conclusions. Additionally, alternative methods or systems are required to analyze the collected data.

Fault prevention is important for software quality assurance. In this paper, we propose an approach for software fault prevention. The fault prevention effect is achieved by means of inferring correct order of implementing components in the formal specification, and automatic code generation for various components or fragments of components in a SOFL specification. The expected effect of the proposed approach is to provide guidance to programmers in formal specification-based programming, enhance their productivity and help them reduce the risk of introducing faults into software.

As children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) suffer a loss of kidney function over time, their susceptibility to cardiac and glycemic conditions such as hypertension, cardiomyopathy, low heart rate variability, and hyperglycemia increases, requiring an accurate, minimally invasive technique for management of the disease. This paper, therefore, proposes a prototype design for minimally invasive monitoring of the electrocardiogram (ECG), pulse saturation of oxygen (SpO2), blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), and glucose levels in children with CKD using comfortable sensors embedded as a chest belt. The focus of the study was on children aged 6 to 12 due to the prevalence of the disease at these ages, reflecting risk factors that are critical for the future. A system for signal processing and filtering was built in LABVIEW after collecting data of vital parameters from an online database. An alarm system, based on the parameters' ranges, was designed using fuzzy logic on Lab Viewalong with a MATLAB script to send messages to parents and doctors for deciding the required action.
