Degradation in FPGAs: Monitoring, Modeling and Mitigation
This dissertation targets the transistor aging degradation as well as the associated thermal challenges in FPGAs (since there is an exponential relation between aging and chip temperature). The main objectives are to perform experimentation, analysis and device-level model abstraction for modeling the degradation in FPGAs, then to monitor the FPGA to keep track of aging rates and ultimately to propose an aging-aware FPGA design flow to mitigate the aging
