Project implementation is arguably the most exciting stage of the project management process. It is during project implementation that project plans begin to come to life and assumptions are able to be tested and measured in real-life scenarios. One of the outcomes of project implementation is a set of deliverables that typically includes a system […]

Identify an issue you feel is dividing the United States. Use the internet and local library to research your issue. Among other things, you should look for the history of the issue, court cases (state or federal), proposed or enacted constitutional amendments (state or local), and public opinion polls regarding the issue. Be sure to

Critics of CVP analysis claim that the assumptions underlying the analysis are almost certain to be violated in practice, thus severely limiting the practical value of the various techniques covered in this chapter. Moreover, say the critics, in the highly competitive environment in which many companies operate, the assumptions necessary for CVP analysis are even

Explain the similarity between Kirchhoff’s Current Law and Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law. 1. Explain the difference between ASICs and FPGAs. 2. Explain the interaction between users, application software, and hardware.

Explain the motivation for developing 3D integrated circuits. 1. Explain the timing constraints in an integrated circuit. 2. Considering a cylindrical resistor of radius 6.0 mm and length 2.0 cm, if the resistivity of the resistor material is 1.8 × 10−6 , calculate the resistance.

Full scan design is the only option in terms of scan chain insertion. In terms of controllability and observability provided by test point insertion, control points have no impact on observability, and observation points have no impact on controllability. SoC debug can be considered as pre-silicon validation, while SoC verification can be considered as post-silicon

Find the three currents (I1,I2,I3) and voltages (Vab,Vbc,Vbd ) in the circuit in Fig. 2.15. 1. Describe the typical PCB design flow. 2. Briefly summarize the features of a typical embedded system. 3. Explain the difference and similarity between software and firmware.

How do you consider that your SoC verification has a good coverage? Explain. Considering an IP core, the first silicon success rate for unverified IP core is 90 percent, whereas the first silicon success rate for verified IP core is 98 percent. (a) If a SoC consists of 10 such unverified IP cores, what is

List the types of common fault models. What are delay faults? What are the differences between transition delay faults (TDF) and path delay faults (PDF)? Explain ATPG. How can one measure the effectiveness of ATPG?

The yield of a manufacturing process is defined as the fraction of acceptable parts among all parts fabricated [5]. If the number of acceptable parts is 5000, and the number of total parts that are fabricated is 7000; calculate the yield. Defect level, also known as reject rate, is defined as the fraction of faulty
