Learning outcomes

This class introduces the fundamental algorithms for the automatic design of embedded systems, with particular emphasis on data structures to design and optimize digital systems and on automatic techniques for synthesis, verification and testing of embedded systems.

Program

Representation of logic functions, multi-valued logic, binary decision diagrams, multi-level logic, netlist optimization with respect to area, timing and power consumption. State machines and sequential circuits, micro-architectural optimization.

Definition, characterization and simulation of defects, fault and error modeling, fault and error simulation. Test generation for combinatorial and sequential circuits, built-in self test, fault tolerance.

Dynamic assertion-based verification. Assertion qualification: assertion coverage, vacuum cleaning. Automatic generation of assertions.
