This book is about large-scale electronic circuits design driven by
nanotechnology, where nanotechnology is broadly defined as building
circuits using nanoscale devices that are either implemented with
nanomaterials (e.g., nanotubes or nanowires) or following an
unconventional method (e.g., FinFET or III/V compound-based
devices). These nanoscale devices have significant potential to
revolutionize the fabrication and integration of electronic systems
and scale beyond the perceived scaling limitations of traditional
CMOS. While innovations in nanotechnology originate at the
individual device level, realizing the true impact of electronic
systems demands that these device-level capabilities be translated
into system-level benefits. This is the first book to focus on
nanoscale circuits and their design issues, bridging the existing
gap between nanodevice research and nanosystem design.
High-Level Power Analysis and Optimization presents a comprehensive
description of power analysis and optimization techniques at the
higher (architecture and behavior) levels of the design hierarchy,
which are often the levels that yield the most power savings. This
book describes power estimation and optimization techniques for use
during high-level (behavioral synthesis), as well as for designs
expressed at the register-transfer or architecture level.
High-Level Power Analysis and Optimization surveys the
state-of-the-art research on the following topics: power
estimation/macromodeling techniques for architecture-level designs,
high-level power management techniques, and high-level synthesis
optimizations for low power. High-Level Power Analysis and
Optimization will be very useful reading for students, researchers,
designers, design methodology developers, and EDA tool developers
who are interested in low-power VLSI design or high-level design
methodologies.
In the last few years CMOS technology has become increas ingly
dominant for realizing Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits.
The popularity of this technology is due to its high den sity and
low power requirement. The ability to realize very com plex
circuits on a single chip has brought about a revolution in the
world of electronics and computers. However, the rapid advance
ments in this area pose many new problems in the area of testing.
Testing has become a very time-consuming process. In order to ease
the burden of testing, many schemes for designing the circuit for
improved testability have been presented. These design for
testability techniques have begun to catch the attention of chip
manufacturers. The trend is towards placing increased emphasis on
these techniques. Another byproduct of the increase in the
complexity of chips is their higher susceptibility to faults. In
order to take care of this problem, we need to build fault-tolerant
systems. The area of fault-tolerant computing has steadily gained
in importance. Today many universities offer courses in the areas
of digital system testing and fault-tolerant computing. Due to the
impor tance of CMOS technology, a significant portion of these
courses may be devoted to CMOS testing. This book has been written
as a reference text for such courses offered at the senior or
graduate level. Familiarity with logic design and switching theory
is assumed. The book should also prove to be useful to
professionals working in the semiconductor industry."

Welcome to the proceedings of the 2004 International Conference on
Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC 2004) which was held in
Aizu-Wakamatsu City, Japan, 25-27 August 2004. Embedded and
ubiquitous computing are emerging rapidly as exciting new paradigms
and disciplines to provide computing and communication services all
the time, everywhere. Its systems are now invading every aspect of
life to the point that they are disappearing inside all sorts of
appliances or can be worn unobtrusively as part of clothing and
jewelry, etc. This emergence is a natural outcome of research and
technological advances in embedded systems, pervasive computing and
communications, wireless networks, mobile computing, distri- ted
computing and agent technologies, etc. Its explosive impact on
academia, industry, government and daily life can be compared to
that of electric motors over the past century but promises to
revolutionize life much more profoundly than elevators, electric
motors or even personal computer evolution ever did. The EUC 2004
conference provided a forum for engineers and scientists in
academia, industry, and government to address all the resulting
profound ch- lenges including technical, safety, social, legal,
political, and economic issues, and to present and discuss their
ideas, results, work in progress and experience on all aspects of
embedded and ubiquitous computing. There was a very large number of
paper submissions (260) from more than 20countriesandregions,
includingnotonlyAsiaandthePaci?c, butalsoEurope and North America.
All submissions were reviewed by at least three program or
technical committee members or external reviewer

Internet-of-Things and machine learning promise a new era for
healthcare. The emergence of transformative technologies, such as
Implantable and Wearable Medical Devices (IWMDs), has enabled
collection and analysis of physiological signals from anyone
anywhere anytime. Machine learning allows us to unearth patterns in
these signals and make healthcare predictions in both daily and
clinical situations. This broadens the reach of healthcare from
conventional clinical contexts to pervasive everyday scenarios,
from passive data collection to active decision-making. Despite the
existence of a rich literature on IWMD-based and clinical
healthcare systems, the fundamental challenges associated with
design and implementation of smart healthcare systems have not been
well-addressed. Smart Healthcare defines a standard framework for
smart healthcare aimed at both daily and clinical settings. It
investigates state-of-the-art smart healthcare systems and their
constituent components, discusses various considerations and
challenges that should be taken into account while designing smart
healthcare systems, explains how existing studies have tackled
these design challenges, and, finally, suggests some avenues for
future research based on a set of open issues and challenges.
