Abstract The present work is relative to a new software suite that features design comprehension and analogic/logic tracing capability with ease of setup in FA laboratory environment. It also expands and correlates FA measure data to design functionality. With this visibility enhanced environment, we show that FA process can be performed more efficiently. Up to now, very few systems have been built with aim to cover advanced diagnosis setup and real-time navigation with synchronized simulation. We address a general FA software tool which purpose is to automate the design database setup and provide to FA engineer capability to launch reading of all design database including capability of generating new patterns compatible with analytical tools. Based on the flow, we propose a series of tools that will allow the FA engineer to work efficiently.

Abstract Yield enhancement has always been an important topic but even more when processes are moving towards smaller geometries. Today, latest FA flow intends to check wafer quality to monitor production in real-time. The purpose is to adjust any derivation coming from the process as fast as possible. The Atmel-CIMPACA laboratory located in Rousset, France, can do Failure Analysis on wafer, thanks to its wafer prober designed to work on DCG systems equipment and integrated CAD software (Meridian, Emiscope, NEXS software suite). Wafer level yield analysis typically requires long setup and multiple dies analysis. Each of the die can be studied with a set a failure analysis (FA) techniques (photo or thermal) emission microscopy [1], laser stimulation techniques [2] or even dynamic probing using time resolved emission [3],[4] or laser based techniques, for the most common ones [5].

Abstract Failure analysis of organics at the microscopic scale is an increasingly important requirement, with traditional analytical tools such as FTIR and Raman microscopy, having significant limitations in either spatial resolution or data quality. We introduce here a new method of obtaining Infrared microspectroscopic information, at the submicron level in reflection (far-field) mode, called Optical-Photothermal Infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy, that can also generate simultaneous Raman spectra, from the same spot, at the same time and with the same spatial resolution. This novel combination of these two correlative techniques can be considered to be complimentary and confirmatory, in which the IR confirms the Raman result and vice-versa, to yield more accurate and therefore more confident organic unknowns analysis.

The article presents an approach to detecting attacks in real time based on simulation and graph-oriented mod- eling. The detection process is performed in a mode close to real-time with the ability to promptly detect known types of security incidents. The distinctive features of the approach include the multidimensional nature of attack detection with the ability to select a specific type of simulation and graph-oriented attack detection model with their subsequent combination. In addition, within the practical part of the work, a software tool has been developed to select the most suitable model apparatus for detecting attacks of each type.

This chapter describes a new approach to environmental decision support for salinity management in the San Joaquin Basin that focuses on Web-based data sharing using tools such as YSI Econet and continuous data quality management using an enterprise-level software tool WISKI. These tools offer real-time Web-access to sensor data as well as providing the owner full control over the way the data is visualized. The same websites use GIS to superimpose the monitoring site locations on maps of local hydrography and allow point and click access to the data collected at each environmental monitoring site. This information technology suite of software and hardware work together with a watershed simulation model WARMF-SJR to provide timely, reliable, and high quality data and forecasts of river salinity that can used by stakeholder decision makers to ensure compliance with state water quality objectives.

This article focuses on the prospects of open source software and tools for maximizing the user expectations in heterogeneous networks. The open source software Python is used as a software tool in this research work for implementing machine learning technique for the categorization of the types of user in a heterogeneous network (HN). The KNN classifier available in Python defines the type of user category in real time to predict the available users in a particular category for maximizing profit for a business organization.
