Integrated circuit (IC) reliability is of increasing concern in present-day IC technology where the interconnect failures significantly increases the failure rate for ICs with decreasing interconnect dimension and increasing number of interconnect levels. Electromigration (EM) of interconnects has now become the dominant failure mechanism that determines the circuit reliability. This brief addresses the readers to the necessity of 3D real circuit modelling in order to evaluate the EM of in...

There are three types of humans in this world. The first one are the humans, second is the good metahumans and the last one are the bad metahumans. Humans are the weakest one out of all of them and it is our jobs, the good metahumans, to protect them from the bad metahumans.

This book examines the management of multiple goals in organizations especially in today's increasingly turbulent business environment.

This book further investigates the impact of internal organizational control systems and external environmental turbulence on multiple goals management. Empirical...

This study presents a corpus-based analysis of the use of wh sentences by language learners, in language textbooks and in authentic written discourse. It focuses on the polysemeous nature of wh words, which can be used as interrogatives, declaratives and to introduce subordinate clauses. The analysis of wh sentences in EFL textbooks showed that there are more prototypical examples at low proficiency levels. When teaching the interrogative, textbooks focus almost exclusively on grammatical ...
