Special Issue on Design, Technology, and Test of Integrated Circuits and Systems


Microelectronics Reliability seeks original manuscripts for a Special Issue on Design, Technology, and Test of Integrated Circuits and Systems scheduled to appear in an issue of 2021.

One of the main challenges for the electronic research field is to cope with the rapidly progressing technology which, today, reaches the nanometer scale. The areas of interest of this Special Issue include the design, test and technology of electronic products, ranging from integrated circuit modules and printed circuit boards to full systems and microsystems, as well as the methodologies and tools used in the design, verification and validation of such products. As a side effect of the device size shrinking, classical computing approaches are no more attractive and novel emerging paradigms technologies are progressively raising interests to the scientific community, which is actually working on: computing-in-memory architectures, approximate computing, evolvable computing, MEMRISTOR based devices and so on.

Topics of the Special Issue include, but are not limited to:
