IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems
This algorithm uses conventional stuck-at-fault testing techniques to arrive at a delay computation method that is both correct and computationally practical, even for particularly difficult circuits. ...
We introduce the notion of static cosensitization of paths which leads us to necessary and sufficient conditions for determining the truth or falsity of a single path, or a set of paths. ...
