Logic studies how arguments work, and how ideas can fit together. Decision theory studies how decisions should be made, especially under uncertainty. Game theory considers how we reason strategically, ...

Nothing is worse for a design team than a chip that fails to work in the bringup lab. Electrical problems are historically a major cause of such failures. Power leaks, power-ground DC paths, missing ...

Why testing alone cannot assure correctness in complex safety-critical software, and how edge cases and undefined behavior are able to evade validation efforts. How formal verification is used to ...

ISO 26262 is the standard that covers the entire lifecycle of automotive systems, from concept and design to production, operation, and decommissioning. Central to ISO 26262 are its Automotive Safety ...
