Wide variation in the way clinical services are provided to similar patients for similar visit types results in highly variable costs but similar clinical outcomes. Objective: To identify optimal ...

As technology nodes shrink to 90 nanometers and below, chips become much more difficult to manufacture. In-die process variations increase substantially at 90 nm — even more at 65 nm. If these effects ...

Venice, Florida &@8212 Solido Design Automation has introduced a scalable and extensible solution for meeting design challenges created by process variations at nanometer feature sizes. The new ...

Chipmakers are pushing into sub-threshold operation in an effort to prolong battery life and reduce energy costs, adding a whole new set of challenges for design teams. While process and environmental ...

The economics for random variation are changing, particularly at advanced nodes and in complex packaging schemes. Random variation always will exist in semiconductor manufacturing processes, but much ...

With semiconductor feature sizes continuing to shrink, the variability arising from process technologies such as strained silicon, as well as the manufacturing processes themselves at 45 nm and below, ...
