SoCProbe: Compositional Post-Silicon Validation of Heterogeneous NoC-Based SoCs

Editor’s notes: This article introduces a novel debug unit enabling compositional postsilicon validation of heterogeneous SoCs. The unit’s effectiveness is demonstrated in post-silicon validation by integrating it into a 12-nm complex SoC prototype. —Mahdi Nikdast, Colorado State University, USA —Miquel Moreto, Barcelona Supercomputing Center, Spain —Masoumeh (Azin) Ebrahimi, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden —Sujay Deb, IIIT Delhi, India
