Future space missions such as the Mars Science Laboratory and Project Constellation suggest the engineering of some of the most complex man-rated software systems. The present process-oriented certification methodologies employed by NASA are becoming prohibitively expensive when applied to systems of such complexity. The process of software certification establishes the level of confidence in a software...
This paper presents a novel method of contour reconstruction from dexel data solving the shape anomalies for the complex geometry in virtual sculpting. Grouping and traversing processes are developed to find connectivity between dexels along every two adjacent rays. After traveling through all the rays on one slice, sub-boundaries are connected into full boundaries which are desired contours. The...
For several decades, the output from semiconductor manufacturers has been high volume products with process optimisation being continued throughout the lifetime of the product to ensure a satisfactory yield. However, product lifetimes are continually shrinking to keep pace with market demands. Furthermore there is an increase in dasiafoundrypsila business where product volumes are low; consequently...
The challenges of deriving early-adopter competitive advantage, even with fabless access to process technology, through leveraging features offered by the advanced, and possibly disruptive, process technologies in real SoC products, are outlined. A structured methodology for addressing these challenges, and bridging the gap between process and design, sufficiently early in the development cycle to...
