Many industrial experiments involve restricted rather than complete randomization. This often leads to the use of split-plot designs, which limit the number of independent settings of some of the experimental factors. These factors, named whole-plot factors, are often, in some way, hard to change. The remaining factors, called sub-plot factors, are easier to change. Their levels are therefore i...

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is changing the way the world designs, connects and optimizes machines. The advent of the IIoT brings together the things of the industrial sector (countless pieces of industrial equipment, machines, production facilities, plants), with a network (high speed routers, switches and gateways), and the cloud, which hosts the software and analytics for making...

Many industrial experiments involve some factors whose levels are harder to set than others. The best way to deal with these is to plan the experiment carefully as a split-plot, or more generally a multi-stratum, design. Several different approaches for constructing splitplot type response surface designs have been proposed in the literature since 2001, which has allowed experimenters to make b...

7 design-violating errors creeping into it through implementation changes made during maintenance, reengineering, and evolution. This body of work offers the prospect of having a significant impact on industrial practice by providing a new way of ensuring that requirements are captured in designs and high-level design knowledge is saved and reused. (" Timethreads " is an old term that we no lon...

The search engine now a days is a popular information retrieval tool. The progress of a society largely depends upon its intellectual manpower, industrial development, availability of information and knowledge and the extent of their use. The present work designs a framework for the progress of individual person depends upon the information availability of that society. The desire and need to b...

The paper presents Gate Transfer Level (GTL) as a general framework for synthesis of industrial complexity asynchronous quasi-delay-insensitive (QDI) circuits. The GTL flow automatically provides the finest degree of pipelining (gate-level) resulting in extremely high-performance designs. Automatic gate level pipelining is not possible for synchronous design due to the stage balance problem and...

Industrial circuit designs commonly contain three-state elements, such as buses and drivers, transmission gates, and bidirectional I/O. A 5-valued fast fault simulation method and a 4-valued parallel pattern version that can handle these circuits are presented. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods in the presence of three-state elements, and show but a small performance...

| In this paper we discuss the development of a BDD-based veriication engine for combina-tional equivalence checking. We focus on the techniques used to obtain eecient processing of practical problem instances. These techniques include the detection and utilization of functionally equivalent signals and of isomorphic sub-circuits. Experimental results on well-known benchmarks as well as industr...

We propose a technique integrating test scheduling, scan chain partitioning and test access mechanism (TAM) design minimizing the test time and the TAM routing cost while considering test conflicts and power constraints. Main features of our technique are (1) the flexibility in modelling the systems test behaviour and (2) the support for interconnection test of unwrapped cores and user-defined ...

We solve the design spectrum problem for all theta graphs with 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 edges.
