It is becoming evident that testability must be addressed throughout the entire design process. To successfully meet all the design goals of today's and tomorrow's enormously complex devices, swift convergence of function, timing, area and power requirements must be simultaneously accompanied by new test tools that enable rapid, predictable and repeatable DFT closure. Achieving successful DFT c...

Introduction Modeling the activities, knowledge, and requirements of agents (both human and automated) has been recognized as a recurrent theme in research conducted by members of the Software and Systems Technology Area (SSTA) at the Honeywell Technology Center (HTC). In fact, we have formed a special interest group that aims to collate and clarify the broad range of task and agent modeling ex...

Escherichia coli O157:H7, predominantly originated from beef, is a significant pathogen to the public health and thus, needs to be vigorously surveyed in meat samples. Three (6%) of 50 ground beef samples were found to be contaminated with E. coli O157:H7, but it was not detected any of 50 chicken drumsticks. This contamination rate of ground beef samples indicated that unhygienic practices pre...

Process variation is becoming a primal concern in timing closure of LSI (Large Scale Integrated Circuit) with the progress of process technology scaling. To overcome this problem, SSTA (Statistical Static Timing Analysis) has been intensively studied since it is expected to be one of the most efficient ways for performance estimation. In this paper, we study variation of output transition-time....

Objectives: The current study mainly aimed at studying the effect of Knowledge of Result (KR) feedback timing and result-estimation opportunity before receiving delayed KR on learning a new speech motor skill in monolingual healthy adults.  Methods: Thirty-nine Persian healthy adults were randomly divided into three groups. Each group received immediate KR, delayed KR (after eight seconds), or...

In this paper we describe the KRONOS system, a tool for verifying real-time properties based on the model of timedautomata. As an example, we show how KRONOS is applied to the verification of a MOS circuit under various delay assumptions.

Appropriate function of active management in common investment funds function depend on factors such as diversification, identification papers unrealistic pricing, market timing, and so on. Market timing are include changing the portfolio investment funds and market indices such as short-term bonds and make an asset depends on whether the market is expected in the whole of the assets to make be...
