abstract: Digital integrated circuits require thorough testing in order to guarantee product quality. This is usually achieved with the use of scan chains and automatically generated test patterns. However, functional approaches are often used to complement test suites. Software Based Self Test (SBST) can be used to increase defect coverage in microcontrollers, to replace part of the scan pattern set to reduce tester requirements, or to complement the defect coverage achieved by structural techniques when advanced semiconductor technologies introduce new defect types. Delay testing has become common practice with VLSI integration, and with the latest technologies, targeting small delay defects (SDDs) has become necessary. This chapter deals with SBST for delay faults and describes a case of study based on a peripheral module integrated in a System on Chip (SoC) A method to develop an effective functional test is first described. A comparative analysis of the delay faults detected by scan and SBST is then presented, with some discussion about the obtained results.

abstract: The gut microbiota coexists in partnership with the human host through adaptations to environmental and physiological changes that help maintain dynamic homeostatic healthy states. Break down of this delicate balance under sustained exposure to stressors (e.g. unhealthy diets) can, however, contribute to the onset of disease. Diet is a key modifiable environmental factor that modulates the gut microbiota and its metabolic capacities that, in turn, could impact human physiology. On this basis, the diet and the gut microbiota could act as synergistic forces that provide resilience against disease or that speed the progress from health to disease states. Associations between unhealthy dietary patterns, non communicable diseases and intestinal dysbiosis can be explained by this hypothesis. Translational studies showing that dietary induced alterations in microbial communities recapitulate some of the pathological features of the original host further support this notion. In this introductory paper by the European project MyNewGut, we briefly summarize the investigations conducted to better understand the role of dietary patterns and food components in metabolic and mental health and the specificities of the microbiome mediating mechanisms. We also discuss how advances in the understanding of the microbiome's role in dietary health effects can help to provide acceptable scientific grounds on which to base dietary advice for promoting healthy living.

abstract: Project based and problem based learning are widespread and proven pedagogical techniques to achieve a variety of learning outcomes. In this paper, several projects in the circuits, systems, VLSI and signal processing areas are described. The projects can be implemented using both project based and problem based learning and as part of an Electrical and Computer Engineering curriculum without the need for additional expensive resources. Learning outcomes in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) are emphasized such that students achieve analytical, design, software and communication skills. The VLSI design project also has an entrepreneurship component. Assessment results are provided.

abstract: We have used an image sensor as a multi year project chip for undergraduates. With this project, students experience VLSI through an entire design cycle from start to finish. Students are involved in the design, simulation, testing i.e. all aspects of the project. The curriculum at Alfred is such that Juniors and Seniors can both take courses in VLSI emphasizing such topics as systems level design, analog design as well as other advanced topics. Students who take VLSI courses in their junior year are then allowed to work on the project chip during their senior year. Sensors constructed are based on the silicon retina, using transistors in subthreshold to produce signal compression at the pixel level.

abstract: Using small spacecrafts for a wide range of research and applied purposes is one of the major trends in the aerospace field. Modular network architectures implemented on the "system on chip" hardware platform provide required characteristics of onboard control systems. Selecting this system architecture significantly increases demands on very large scale integration (VLSI) design efficiency and project solution quality. In this paper, we propose a new approach to VLSI high level synthesis based on a functional flow parallel computing model. The modified VLSI design flow uses a functional flow parallel programming language Pythagoras, which allows describing a VLSI operation algorithm with the maximal degree of parallelism. An offered intermediate representation of VLSI architecture in the form of a control flow graph and a data flow graph provides an opportunity for synthesizing circuits and verifying projects on the stage of a formal description, without returning to previous hierarchical levels of the project. A set of software tools supporting new design process is developed. The proposed technology is successfully tested on the example of a digital signal processing function. Further, this technology is suggested for use in the synthesis of onboard control system components for small spacecrafts.

abstract: This article describes test ship design and parameter extraction of parasitic capacitance of MOSFET in VLSI. The test structure for separating area and side wall capacitance components of N+Psub junction and P+Nwell junction are used as testing devices. The BSIM3v3 models are proposed also. The results suggest that the correlation was found in 2% level. The manual calculation should be used for the benefit of extraction methodology. Finally, the overall data should be a data base of the design tool kit which hand out to the circuit designer in Multi Project Chip.

abstract: The literature base regarding the development of sporting talent is extensive, and includes empirical articles, reviews, position papers, academic books, governing body documents, popular books, unpublished theses and anecdotal evidence, and contains numerous models of talent development. With such a varied body of work, the task for researchers, practitioners and policy makers of generating a clear understanding of what is known and what is thought to be true regarding the development of sporting talent is particularly challenging. Drawing on a wide array of expertise, we address this challenge by avoiding adherence to any specific model or area and by providing a reasoned review across three key overarching topics: (a) the performer; (b) the environment; and (c) practice and training. Within each topic sub section, we review and calibrate evidence by performance level of the samples. We then conclude each sub section with a brief summary, a rating of the quality of evidence, a recommendation for practice and suggestions for future research. These serve to highlight both our current level of understanding and our level of confidence in providing practice recommendations, but also point to a need for future studies that could offer evidence regarding the complex interactions that almost certainly exist across domains.
