  • Abstract
    This paper focuses on techniques to build more effective circuits for dynamic variation tolerance. Three main approaches are presented based on adaptive circuits, error detection and recovery techniques, and adaptive clock distribution. The tradeoffs in effectiveness and overhead of these different solutions are discussed.
