Synopsis
This book contains extended and revised versions of the best papers that were presented during the thirteenth edition of the IFIP TC10/WG10.5 International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration, a Global System-on-a-Chip Design & CAD conference. The 13th conference was held at the Parmelia Hilton Hotel, Perth, Western Australia (October 17-19, 2005). Previous conferences have taken place in Edinburgh, Trondheim, Vancouver, Munich, Grenoble, Tokyo, Gramado, Lisbon, Montpellier and Darmstadt. The purpose of this conference, sponsored by IFIP TC 10 Working Group 10.5, is to provide a forum to exchange ideas and show industrial and academic research results in the field of mic- electronics design. The current trend toward increasing chip integ- tion and technology process advancements brings about stimulating new challenges both at the physical and system-design levels, as well in the test of these systems. VLSI-SOC conferences aim to address these exciting new issues. The 2005 edition of VLSI-SoC maintained the traditional structure, which has been successful at the previous VLSI-SOC conferences. The quality of submissions (107 papers from 26 countries) made the selection process difficult, but finally 63 papers and 25 posters were accepted for presentation in VLSI-SoC 2005. Out of the 63 full papers presented at the conference, 20 were chosen by a selection committee to have an extended and revised version included in this book. These selected papers came from Australia, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Korea, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States of America. x Preface

International Federation for Information Processing
The IFIP series publishes state-of-the-art results in the sciences and technologies of information and communication. The scope of the series includes: foundations of computer science; software theory and practice; education; computer applications in technology; communication systems; systems modeling and optimization; information systems; computers and society; computer systems technology; security and protection in information processing systems; artificial intelligence; and human-computer interaction. Proceedings and post-proceedings of referred international conferences in computer science and interdisciplinary fields are featured. These results often precede journal publication and represent the most current research. The principal aim of the IFIP series is to encourage education and the dissemination and exchange of information about all aspects of computing.
