Trade-offs in scan path and BIST implementations for RAMs

In this article we propose efficient scan path and BIST schemes for RAMs. Tools for automatic generation of these schemes have been implemented. They reduce the design effort and thus allow the designer to select the more appropriate scheme with respect to various constraints.     

Zero aliasing ROM BIST

Signature analyzers are very efficient output response compactors for BIST design. The only limitation of signature analysis is the fault coverage reduction (aliasing) due to the information loss inherent to any data compaction. In this article, in order to increase the effectiveness of ROM BIST, we take advantage from the simplicity of the error patterns generated by ROMs and we show that aliasing free signature analysis can be achieved in ROM BIST.This work was performed when the author was on leave from Minsk Radio Engineering Institute, Computer Department, Belorus.     

Mixed-Signal Circuit Classification in a Pseudo-Random Testing Scheme

Pseudo-random testing techniques for mixed-signal circuits offer several advantages compared to explicit time-domain and frequency-domain test methods, especially in a BIST structure. To fully exploit these advantages a suitable choice of the pseudo-random input parameters should be done and an investigation on the accuracy of the circuit response samples needed to reduce the risk of misclassification should be carried out. Here these issues have been addressed for a testing scheme based on the estimation of the impulse response of the device under test (DUT) by means of input-output cross-correlation. Moreover, new acceptance criteria for the DUT are suggested which solve some ambiguity problems arising if the classification of the DUT as good or bad is based on a few samples of the cross-correlation function. Examples of application of the proposed techniques to real cases are also shown in order to assess the impact of the measurement system inaccuracies on the reliability of the test.     

两个基于身份的数字签名方案的安全性改进

分析了文献[1]提出的两个基于用户身份的数字签名方案，发现其一般签名方案存在安全性缺陷，在此基础上建立了多重签名方案，但此方案也是不安全的。本文给出了改进的签名和多重签名方案。     

坦克红外特征控制技术评述

坦克红外特征控制对于提高坦克的战场生存能力具有重要意义。控制的主要方法有遮障、表面处理、外形技术、主动冷却、总体设计等。坦克红外特征的控制必须与其他波段，特别是射频波段的特性控制兼容。遮障和低发射率涂料是现役坦克红外特征控制的主要措施。而对未来的主战坦克，设计应是减少其系统特性的重要途径。     

Comments on “Aliasing Properties of Circular MISRs”

The analysis of aliasing probability presented in a recent article, Aliasing Properties of Circular MISRs [1], is based on an error model that cannot adequately represent real circuits. We show why conclusions presented in [1] should not be used in practice, substantiating our claim with experimental results.This work was supported in part by grants from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and in part by the British Columbia Advanced Systems Institute     

基于近邻关系特征的多态蠕虫防御方法

结合多态蠕虫的特点,着重考虑负载字节之间的关系,将蠕虫负载内部的近邻关系特征(NRS,neighbor-hood-relation signature)提取出来用于蠕虫检测。NRS建立在蠕虫负载内部相邻字节之间关系的基础上,体现了某些多态蠕虫各形态之间的共性特征,能够更灵活地对多态蠕虫进行检测。设计了NRSGA(NRS generating algorithm)算法来提取1-NRS、2-NRS和(1,2)-NRS,并分别进行了实验,以测试特征提取过程的正确性和NRS检测蠕虫的有效性。实验结果表明,与其他方法相比,NRS在检测多态蠕虫时具有更低的漏报率,能够更好地防御多态蠕虫的传播。
