Preface
New applications enabled by advances in semiconductor manufacturing technology continue to grow at an amazing rate. A wide spectrum of novel products, ranging from high-performance processors to a broad array of low-power portable devices to micro sense/communicate/actuate chips, facilitates various new applications that have changed, and will continue to change, our daily lives. However, as the semiconductor industry moves to ever-smaller feature sizes and the number of transistors embedded within a very-large-scale integration (VLSI) circuit continues to grow, under the relentless pressure of time-to-market for high-quality, reliable products, the semiconductor industry is increasingly dependent on design technology for design closure ...
