Quasi-Static Voltage Scaling for Energy Minimization with Time Constraints
Supply voltage scaling and adaptive body-biasing are important tech-niques that help to reduce the energy dissipation of embedded systems. This is achieved by dynamically adjusting the voltage and performance settings according to the application needs. In order to take full ad-vantage of slack that arises from variations in the execution time, it is important to recalculate the voltage (performance) settings during run-time, i.e., online. However, voltage scaling (VS) is computationally ex-pensive, and thus significantly hampers the possible energy savings. To overcome the online complexity, we propose a quasi-static voltage scal-ing scheme, with a constant online time complexity O(1). This allows to increase the exploitable slack as well as to avoid the energy dissipated due to online recalculation of the voltage settings. We conduct several experiments that demonstrate the advantages of the proposed technique over the previously published voltage scaling approaches

HSPICE implementation of a numerically efficient model of CNT transistor
This paper presents the algorithms of an implementation of a numerically efficient carbon nanotube transistor (CNT) model in HSPICE. The model is derived from cubic spline non-linear approximation of the non-equilibrium mobile charge density. The spline algorithm exploits a rapid and accurate solution of the numerical relationship between the charge density and the self-consistent voltage, which results in the acceleration of deriving the current through the channel without losing much accuracy. The output I-V characteristics of the proposed model have been compared with those of a recent HSPICE implementation of the Stanford CNT model and published experimental I-V curves. The results show superior accuracy of the proposed model while maintaining similar CPU time performance. Two versions of the HSPICE macromodel implementation have been developed and validated, one to reflect ballistic transport only and another with non-ballistic effects. To further validate the model a complementary logic inverter has also been implemented using the proposed technique and simulated in HSPICE

A Fast and Accurate Process Variation-aware Modeling Technique for Resistive Bridge Defects
Recent research has shown that tests generated without taking process variation into account may lead to loss of test quality. At present there is no efficient device-level modeling technique that models the effect of process variation on resistive bridge defects. This paper presents a fast and accurate technique to achieve this, including modeling the effect of voltage and temperature variation using BSIM4 transistor model. To speedup the computation time and without compromising simulation accuracy (achieved through BSIM4) two efficient voltage approximation algorithms are proposed for calculating logic threshold of driven gates and voltages on bridged lines of a fault-site to calculate bridge critical resistance. Experiments are conducted on a 65-nm gate library (for illustration purposes), and results show that on average the proposed modeling technique is more than 53 times faster and in the worst case, error in bridge critical resistance is 2.64% when compared with HSPICE
