Network-on-Chip (NoC) offers a promising solution for on-chip communication in highly integrated System-on-Chips (SoCs). NoCs can be designed with either regular or application-specific network topologies. While regular topologies are easy to design, they are not ideal for systems with heterogeneous processing elements (PEs) that vary in size. The design of application-specific NoCs, however, involves several interrelated problems that impact each other. This work addresses the challenges in the synthesis of application-specific NoCs by proposing an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) framework. This framework enables the co-design of major problems, including floorplanning, routing topology generation, routing path construction, and application mapping. Although the ILP framework can be applied to each problem individually or in a stepwise manner, the co-design of these interconnected problems allows synthesis steps to interact, enabling designers to explore the entire design space. Using this framework, we have analyzed various design configurations in the synthesis of application-specific NoCs. © 2024 IEEE.

Chiplet-based systems have become prominent in large Systems-on-Chips (SoCs) as a means to mitigate increasing design costs. However, the integration of multiple chiplets introduces new challenges in the interconnection network, potentially leading to deadlocks. In this paper, we propose an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) based design approach to address this issue. Our method considers various design factors for deadlock-free routing, such as topology, latency, load balancing, path diversity, and fault tolerance, applicable to both general-purpose chiplets and application-specific chiplets. It facilitates the determination of optimal turn restrictions for general-purpose chiplets or constructs optimal deadlock-free routing paths for application-specific chiplets if the communication patterns are known. The results demonstrate the capability of the method to find optimal solutions under various design considerations. © 2024 IEEE.

Marginal defects, such as high-resistance short or low-resistance open defects, are hard to detect by conventional pass-fail test methods because their manifestations are practically indistinguishable from the effects of regular variations. However, their coverage is essential for circuits with high-quality requirements and/or when early-life failures are a concern. In this paper, we propose an alternative detection concept based on evaluating several parametric responses of a circuit against a machine learning (ML) model. We use a 14nm FinFET transistor model validated against industrial measurements. We show that high detection performance is possible even when unsupervised learning that does not consider defective behavior is used;to this end, the procedure is generic. Moreover, an AUC score of over 0.96 is achieved when only measurements from a single voltage level are utilized, in contrast to earlier work. We also present a procedure to select a reduced set of test sequences, achieving an improvement of 50% reduction with a limited impact on detection performance. © 2024 IEEE.

Stochastic computing (SC) provides low-area, power-efficient hardware solutions suitable for edge systems, but its scalability poses challenges due to its precision limitations, especially in noisy environments. This paper investigates the fault tolerance of key SC components, such as stochastic number generators (SNGs) and activation functions (AFs), within recurrent and sequential networks like long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. We inject bit-flip faults into a network's most sensitive inputs, weights and AFs, and study fault propagation across different network layers. Our findings reveal that SC component choices significantly influence fault tolerance. For example, networks using Sobol-based SNGs with tanh AFs exhibited stronger resilience than those with LFSR-based SNGs and ReLU AFs, by maintaining higher accuracy under fault conditions. However, the accuracy of the networks declined significantly under simultaneous faults in inputs, weights and AFs. Additionally, while increasing stochastic number lengths improved fault tolerance, they also increased latency. Nevertheless, the SC networks achieved up to 54% area and 72% power savings, making them ideal for resource-constrained applications. We also found that there is a trade-off between efficiency and fault tolerance: SC designs that focus on resource efficiency may struggle in noisy environments, where fault-tolerant SC designs are more effective. This implies that fault resilience in SC architectures depend heavily on design choices and cannot be assumed inherent across all configurations. © 2024 IEEE.

Approximate computing allows designers to trade-off precision with hardware cost and power consumption. The possible degree of approximation relies on a realistic quality assessment with functional input sequences and metrics to quantify the error magnitude. The complete exploration of the input space is impracticable in most cases but a partial input sequence might underestimate the severity of possible errors. The paper at hand presents an approach to generate patterns for efficient acceptability verification of an approximate circuit and to complement conventional quality assessment methods. A modified miter design indicates the differences between the approximate and the precise circuit, and an existing ATPG flow is used to maximize the differences. A case study on JPEG2000 decoder validates that our approach can efficiently and effectively identify unacceptable approximate results where conventional image quality assessment methods failed. © 2024 IEEE.

System-Level Test (SLT) is essential for testing integrated circuits, focusing on functional and non-functional properties of the Device under Test (DUT). Traditionally, test engineers manually create tests with commercial software to simulate the DUT's end-user environment. This process is both time-consuming and offers limited control over non-functional properties. This paper proposes Large Language Models (LLMs) enhanced by Structural Chain of Thought (SCoT) prompting, a temperature schedule, and a pool of previously generated snippets to generate high-quality code snippets for SLT. We repeatedly query the LLM for a better snippet using previously generated snippets as examples, thus creating an iterative optimization loop. This approach can automatically generate snippets for SLT that target specific non-functional properties, reducing time and effort. Our findings show that this approach improves the quality of the generated snippets compared to unstructured prompts containing only a task description. © 2024 IEEE.

Memristive crossbars are attractive for in-memory computing due to their integration density combined with compute and storage capabilities of their basic devices. However, yield and fidelity of emerging memristive technologies can make their reliable operation unattainable, thus raising interest in simpler topologies. In this paper, we consider synthesis of Boolean functions on 1D memristive line arrays. We propose an optimal procedure that can fully utilize the rich electrical behavior of memristive devices, mixing stateful (resistance-input) and non-stateful (voltage-input) operations as desired by the designer, leveraging their respective strengths. The synthesis method is based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solving and supports flexible constraints to enforce, e.g., restrictions of the available peripher-als. We experimentally validate memristive logic circuits beyond individual logic gates by demonstrating the operation of a Galois field multiplier using a 1D line array of 10 memristors in parallel, highlighting the robust performance of our proposed mixed-mode circuit and its synthesis procedure. © 2025 EDAA.

While memristive devices are highly attractive as memory cells, they are also capable of performing computations, paving the way to futuristic in-memory computing architecture. Several memristive logic families have been proposed, and approaches to map gate-level logic circuits to such memristive implementations have been introduced. In this paper, we focus on the CRS logic family that offers several advantages compared to the more often considered IMPLY and MAGIC families. A central feature of CRS is the ability of one physical memristive device to realize varying logic gates over several clock cycles. Our method computes a schedule, i.e., an assignment which logic gate of a given circuit is executed on which memristive device during which clock cycles. Using an optimal MaxSAT model, it can minimize the resulting schedule's duration (depth), the cost of the used memristors, or the cost of additional cache register cells, while satisfying all dependencies needed for correct computation. In addition to results of the scheduling procedure itself, we report a physical experiment that demonstrates one of the schedules and discuss the energy benefits of the CRS family. © 2023 IEEE.

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication maneuvers the proximity services for flexible communication between two nearby devices. It provides high data rates and enhances the spectral and energy efficiency of the D2D communication systems. The base station plays an important role in allocating cellular resources to D2D users. However, it suffers from challenges, such as interference, inefficient resource allocation, security, device discovery, and many more, which may deteriorate the performance of D2D communication. To overcome the aforementioned issues, in this paper, we present an analytics-based efficient network selection scheme that utilizes the reference channel indicators, i.e., receive strength signal indicator, received signal received power, and reference signal received quality to select the best micro base station (MBS) between the D2D user. We evaluated the proposed scheme in five different simulated scenarios wherein each scenario, there are a different number of MBS and D2D pairs. The MBS broadcasts the reference channel indicators at a specific interval of time, and the D2D pairs select the MBS that has the most promising indicator. Finally, all the proposed scenarios are compared and evaluated against the sum rate to analyze the performance of D2D communication with the reference channel indicators. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2025.
