Session 25: Failure Analysis Process 2
Location: North Ballroom (Worcester's Centrum Centre)
(Please check final room assignments on-site).
Session Description: Discussions of the FA process can include implementation of methodologies and tools to support an effective FA process, managing the FA process effectively, and successful execution of the FA process. This session includes papers discussing; an improved fault isolation methodology for embedded cache memory, case studies where methods and decisions led to successful FA results, a software based system integrating logical and physical analysis environments supporting an effective FA process.
