On chip Built In Self Test (BIST) is a cost-effective test methodology for highly complex VLSI devices like Systems On Chip (SoC). This work deals with cost-effective BIST methods and Test Pattern Generation (TPG) schemes ...

The development of modern integration technologies is normally driven by the needs of digital CMOS circuit design. Rapid progress in silicon VLSI technologies has made it possible to implement multi-function and high ...

Modelling and simulation are essential ingredients of the analysis and design process in power electronics. It helps a design engineer gain an increased understanding of circuit operation. Accordingly, for a set of ...

Increasing enrollment of students and declining availability of qualified and experienced faculty are leading to increased assessment loads of the existing faculty. Moreover, the assessment techniques are changing drastically ...

The common theme throughout the thesis is to explore the possibility of using a single framework, namely the systems theory framework, in modeling a few stylized features of a financial market. A systems theoretic model ...

In the next generation of networks we will begin to see the true convergence of voice, multimedia, and data traffic. This merging of various dedicated networks will occur both in the wired and wireless domains. Given the ...

The congestion control mechanisms of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) are very effective in providing best effort service in wired networks, where packet losses are mainly due to congestion in the network. In wireless ...
