Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Producing a functionally correct integrated circuit is becoming increasingly difficult. No matter how careful a designer is, there will always be integrated circuits that are fabricated, but do not operate as expected. Providing a means to effectively debug these integrated circuits is vital to help pin-point problems and reduce the number of re-spins required to create a correctly-functioning chip. In this paper, we show that programmable logic cores (PLCs) and flexible networks can provide this debugging capability. We present an architecture and example implementation. We show that the area overhead of this proposed architecture would be well below 10% for many target ICs.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
