With shrinking technology,the increase in variability of process,voltage,and temperature(PVT) parameters significantly impacts the yield analysis and optimization for chip designs.Previous yield estimation algorithms have been limited to predicting either timing or power yield.However,neglecting the correlation between power and delay will result in significant yield loss.Most of these approaches also suffer from high computational complexity and long runtime.We suggest a novel bi-objective optimization framework based on Chebyshev affine arithmetic(CAA) and the adaptive weighted sum(AWS) method.Both power and timing yield are set as objective functions in this framework.The two objectives are optimized simultaneously to maintain the correlation between them.The proposed method first predicts the guaranteed probability bounds for leakage and delay distributions under the assumption of arbitrary correlations.Then a power-delay bi-objective optimization model is formulated by computation of cumulative distribution function(CDF) bounds.Finally,the AWS method is applied for power-delay optimization to generate a well-distributed set of Pareto-optimal solutions.Experimental results on ISCAS benchmark circuits show that the proposed bi-objective framework is capable of providing sufficient trade-off information between power and timing yield.

摘 要高职院校教学对我国高等教育事业的发展也产生了极大的推动作用。尤其是近几年高校学生人数的不断扩招,市场上对于人才的需求更是出现了供大于求的局面。但是一些中小微型企业却面临着供不应求的状况。这也使得高职院校和中小微型企业产学研的合作模式无法达成平衡。因此,如何才能加强高职院校与中小微企业的产学研合作,是需要我们深度思考的问题。只有从根本上找到问题出现的原因,才能实现校企双方的双赢。  【关键词】
