11:00-12:30 Panel Session 13A: Error Tolerance: Are Good-enough Chips Good Enough?

Organizer
- Ilia Polian : Universität Freiburg, Germany

Moderator
- Ilia Polian : Universität Freiburg, DE

Abstract:  The advent of nanoscale technologies is leading to more and more errors, both hard and soft, showing up in the circuits. Known fault tolerance approaches can help in solving the problem, but often at an prohibitively high cost. Error tolerance is a novel paradigm stating that circuits containing defects, or good-enough (rather than perfect) chips, can operate in a way acceptable with respect to an application. First experiments demonstrated that a significant share of single-stuck-at faults in MPEG and JPEG devices lead to an acceptable performance. This panel will address the following questions: Is error tolerance a concept suited to achieve adequate yields in inherently unreliable nanoscale technologies? What are the implications of error tolerance on the design, test and verification flows? Is the market willing to accept good-enough chips? Is error tolerance applicable to hard or soft errors? What are the limitations?

11:00-12:30 Special Session 13B: Test Access for Chips, Boards and Multi-Board Systems: What is Really Needed?

Organizers
- Robert Ruiz : Synopsys, USA
- Erik Larsson : Linköping University, Sweden

Moderator
- Erik Jan Marinissen : NXP Research, NL

Abstract  What do you do when chips on a board behave unexpectedly? How do you know if the errors originate from functional design bugs or physical manufacturing defects? Do you have access to the internal silicon signals for observation and/or stimulation? Can you access the signals even when chips are mounted on boards and placed into systems? Do IJTAG and SJTAG initiatives help with this issue, or is something else needed?
