    In a recent paper [14], a scheme for inserting and extracting high brightness electron beams to/from a plasma based acceleration stage was presented and proved to be effective with an ideal bi-Gaussian beam, as could be delivered by a conventional photo-injector. In this paper, we extend that study, assessing the method stability against some jitters in the properties of the injected beam. We find that the effects of jitters in Twiss parameters are not symmetric in results; we find a promising configuration that yields better performances than the setting proposed in [14]. Moreover we show and interpret what happens when the beam charge profiles are modified

    As new generations of targeted therapies emerge and tumor genome sequencing discovers increasingly comprehensive mutation repertoires, the functional relationships of mutations to tumor phenotypes remain largely unknown. Here, we measured ex vivo sensitivity of 246 blood cancers to 63 drugs alongside genome, transcriptome, and DNA methylome analysis to understand determinants of drug response. We assembled a primary blood cancer cell encyclopedia data set that revealed disease-specific sensitivities for each cancer. Within chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), responses to 62% of drugs were associated with 2 or more mutations, and linked the B cell receptor (BCR) pathway to trisomy 12, an important driver of CLL. Based on drug responses, the disease could be organized into phenotypic subgroups characterized by exploitable dependencies on BCR, mTOR, or MEK signaling and associated with mutations, gene expression, and DNA methylation. Fourteen percent of CLLs were driven by mTOR signaling in a non-BCR-dependent manner. Multivariate modeling revealed immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene (IGHV) mutation status and trisomy 12 as the most important modulators of response to kinase inhibitors in CLL. Ex vivo drug responses were associated with outcome. This study overcomes the perception that most mutations do not influence drug response of cancer, and points to an updated approach to understanding tumor biology, with implications for biomarker discovery and cancer care

    Leakage Current Analysis for Diagnosis of Bridge Defects in Power-Gating Designs

    Manufacturing defects that do not affect the functional operation of low power Integrated Circuits (ICs) can nevertheless impact their power saving capability. We show that stuck-ON faults on the power switches and resistive bridges between the power networks can impair the power saving capability of power-gating designs. For quantifying the impact of such faults on the power savings of power-gating designs, we propose a diagnosis technique that targets bridges between the power networks. The proposed technique is based on the static power analysis of a power-gating design in stand-by mode and it utilizes a novel on-chip signature generation unit, which is sensitive to the voltage level between power rails, the measurements of which are processed off-line for the diagnosis of bridges that can adversely affect power savings. We explore, through SPICE simulation of the largest IWLS’05 benchmarks synthesised using a 32 nm CMOS technology, the trade-offs achieved by the proposed technique between diagnosis accuracy and area cost and we evaluate its robustness against process variation. The proposed technique achieves a diagnosis resolution that is higher than 98.6% and 97.9% for bridges of R ≳ 10MΩ(weak bridges) and bridges of R â‰Č 10MΩ (strong bridges), respectively, and a diagnosis accuracy higher than 94.5% for all the examined defects. The area overhead is small and scalable: it is found to be 1.8% and 0.3% for designs with 27K and 157K gate equivalents, respectively

    Reliable Power Gating with NBTI Aging Benefits

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we show that Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) aging of sleep transistors (STs), together with its detrimental effect for circuit performance and lifetime, presents considerable benefits for power gated circuits. Indeed, it reduces static power due to leakage current, and increases ST switch efficiency, making power gating more efficient and effective over time. The magnitude of these aging benefits depends on operating and environmental conditions. By means of HSPICE simulations, considering a 32nm CMOS technology, we demonstrate that static power may reduce by more than 80% in 10 years of operation. Static power decrease over time due to NBTI aging is also proven experimentally, using a test-chip manufactured with a TSMC 65nm technology. We propose an ST design strategy for reliable power gating, in order to harvest the benefits offered by NBTI aging. It relies on the design of STs with a proper lower Vth compared to the standard power switching fabric. This can be achieved by either re-designing the STs with the identified Vth value, or applying a proper forward body bias to the available power switching fabrics. Through HSPICE simulations, we show lifetime extension up to 21.4X and average static power reduction up to 16.3% compared to standard ST design approach, without additional area overhead. Finally, we show lifetime extension and several performance-cost trade-offs when a target maximum lifetime is considered

Indeed, static power reduces considerably, making CMOS circuits more energy efficient over time. Static power reduction depends on transistor stress ratio and operating temperature. We propose a simulation flow allowing us to properly evaluate the BTI aging of complex circuits in order to estimate BTI-induced power reduction accurately. Through HSPICE simulations, we show 50% static power reduction after only one month of operation, which exceeds 78% in ten years. BTI aging benefits for power consumption are also proven with experimental measurements.Peer reviewedFinal Accepted Versio

    Perbandingan Sistem Publikasi Positif dan Negatif Pendaftaran Tanah: Perspektif Kepastian Hukum

    Get PDF
    Penelitian ini bertujuan intuk melakukan pada perbandingan sistem pendaftaran tanah yang ada, baik itu melalui sistem pendaftaran positif maupun sistem pendaftaran negatif. Pendekatan penelitian menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan (statute), pendekatan kasus, dan pendekatan perbandingan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perbandingan penerapan sistem publikasi positif dan sistem publikasi negartif jika dihubungkan dengan praktek maupun fenomena yang terjadi di Indonesia, ternyata penerapan sistem publikasi negatif yang dianut dalam hal pendaftaran tanah masih dirasa belum efektif untuk menjamin kepastian hukum masyarakat. Penerapan publikasi negatif masih belum bisa menciptakan suatu kepastian hukum mengingat banyaknya kasus sengketa tanah maupun adanya duplikasi sertifikat tanah. Oleh karena itu, Pemerintah sebaiknya melakukan kajian dan pertimbangan kembali dalam menerapkan sistem publikasi negatif dan mencoba langkah-langkah maju untuk dapat menerakan kebijakan sistem publikasi positif dalam pendaftaran tanah di Indonesia yang tentu saja dengan pertimbangan yuridis yang berkepastian hukum

    DFT Architecture with Power-Distribution-Network Consideration for Delay-based Power Gating Test

    Get PDF
    This paper shows that existing delay-based testing techniques for power gating exhibit both fault coverage and yield loss due to deviations at the charging delay introduced by the distributed nature of the power-distribution-networks (PDNs). To restore this test quality loss, which could reach up to 67.7% of false passes and 25% of false fails due to stuck-open faults, we propose a design-for-testability (DFT) logic that accounts for a distributed PDN. The proposed logic is optimized by an algorithm that also handles uncertainty due to process variations and offers trade-off flexibility between test-application time and area cost. A calibration process is proposed to bridge model-to-hardware discrepancies and increase test quality when considering systematic variations. Through SPICE simulations, we show complete recovery of the test quality lost due to PDNs. The proposed method is robust sustaining 80.3% to 98.6% of the achieved test quality under high random and systematic process variations. To the best of our knowledge, this paper presents the first analysis of the PDN impact on test quality and offers a unified test solution for both ring and grid power gating styles

    NBTI and leakage aware sleep transistor design for reliable and energy efficient power gating

    No full text
    In this paper we show that power gating techniques become more effective during their lifetime, since the aging of sleep transistors (STs) due to negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) drastically reduces leakage power. Based on this property, we propose an NBTI and leakage aware ST design method for reliable and energy efficient power gating. Through SPICE simulations, we show lifetime extension up to 19.9x and average leakage power reduction up to 14.4% compared to standard STs design approach without additional area overhead.Finally, when a maximum 10-year lifetime target is considered, we show that the proposed method allows multiple beneficial options compared to a standard STs design method: either to improve circuit operating frequency up to 9.53% or to reduce ST area overhead up to 18.4

    Exploiting Aging Benefits for the Design of Reliable Drowsy Cache Memories

    In this paper, we show how beneficial effects of aging on static power consumption can be exploited to design reliable drowsy cache memories adopting dynamic voltage scaling(DVS) to reduce static power. First, we develop an analytical model allowing designers to evaluate the long-term threshold voltage degradation induced by bias temperature instability (BTI)in a drowsy cache memory. Through HSPICE simulations, we demonstrate that, as drowsy memories age, static power reduction techniques based on DVS become more effective because of reduction in sub-threshold current due to BTI aging. We develop a simulation framework to evaluate trade-offs between static power and reliability, and a methodology to properly select the “drowsy” data retention voltage. We then propose different architectures of a drowsy cache memory allowing designers to meet different power and reliability constraints. The performed HSPICE simulations show a soft error rate and static noise margin improvement up to 20.8% and 22.7%, respectively, compared to standard aging unaware drowsy technique. This is achieved with a limited static power increase during the very early lifetime, and with static energy saving of up to 37% in 10 years of operation, at no or very limited hardware overhead
