Manufacturing process variability at low geometries and power dissipation are the most challenging problems in the design of future computing systems. Currently manufacturers go to great lengths to guarantee fault-free operation of their products by introducing redundancy in voltage margins, conservative layout rules, and extra protection circuitry. However, such design redundancy may result into ...

"Though current day designs carry the promise of meeting the ever escalating demands of high performance/ quality requirements, they often exhibit large power consumption that limits the battery lifetime and generates excessive heat. Besides power consumption, process variations also pose major design concern with scaling of devices that may lead to erroneous computations and loss of stored data t ...
