Some Coding Techniques for VLSI Systems

在计算机和通信系统中，错误控制码被广泛用于实现高可靠性。本项目涉及适用于VLSI系统的几种新的错误控制码。这些类包括：可以掩盖桥接故障和总线打开故障的代码；可降低CMOS电路功耗和噪声的恒重码；以及可应用于通信系统和ALU设计的非对称码。在所有这些课程中，有希望的初步结果正在通过新代码的设计和分析得到扩展。

Error control codes have been extensively used to achieve high reliability in computer and communication systems. This project deals with several new classes of error control codes applicable to VLSI systems. These classes include: codes that can mask bridging faults and open faults in busses; constant weight codes that can reduce power consumption and noise in CMOS circuits; and assymetric codes that can be applied in communications systems and ALU designs. In all of these classes, promising preliminary results are being extended by the design and analysis of new codes.
