Nearly sixty years ago, the first successful demonstration of the transistor proved to be the herald of a new era of microelectronics. The ever-increasing complexity and functional speed of microelectronic circuits now containing tens of millions of transistors demand appropriate and rigorous test engineering activities during development and...

Previous work in this area has tended to come from the viewpoint of a single discipline,...

Managing online storage effectively is becoming an essential component of the information processing strategy as enterprises place increasing reliance on their data assets. The many online storage management options available for the Windows server environment can be bewildering...

Among the possible computer...

Oscillation-Based Test in Mixed-Signal Circuits presents the development and experimental validation of the structural test strategy called Oscillation-Based Test – OBT in short. The results here presented allow to assert, not only from a theoretical point of view, but also based on a wide experimental support, that OBT is an efficient...

When we rst started working on the problem of making the kernel machine approach applicable to the classication of graphs a couple of years ago, our eorts were mainly driven by the fact that kernel methods had led to impressive performance results on many data sets. It didn't take us long to appreciate the sheer elegance of how...

As our modern information-age society grows in complexity both in terms of embedded systems and applications, the problems and challenges in reliability become ever more complex. Bringing together many of the leading experts in the field, this volume presents a broad picture of current research on system modeling and optimization in...
