Verifying the correctness of modern integrated circuit designs is a critical success factor from both economic and technological perspectives. Rapid advances in semiconductor manufacturing technology are not matched by similar gains in hardware design verification methodology. This creates a widening verification gap that threatens the viability of future complex integrated circuits. This project aims to address this issue by developing novel hardware verification techniques targeting complex high performance systems-on-a-chip. The research outcome will be a set of verification techniques and tools that directly benefit the advancement of future integrated circuit development, verification and manufacturing.Read moreRead less
Development of a novel flex sensor for use on catheters in medical pressure diagnostic tools. This research project will lead to a significant improvement on the technologies currently available to diagnostic tests of swallowing dysfunctions in children. The proposed technology is much needed and will enable future development of more direct and targeted interventions to assist with feeding based on these measurement techniques. In addition, the knowledge and expertise learned from this project ....Development of a novel flex sensor for use on catheters in medical pressure diagnostic tools. This research project will lead to a significant improvement on the technologies currently available to diagnostic tests of swallowing dysfunctions in children. The proposed technology is much needed and will enable future development of more direct and targeted interventions to assist with feeding based on these measurement techniques. In addition, the knowledge and expertise learned from this project as applied to such a miniature medical device comprises sufficient generic know-how to be useful in developing other biomedical devices. These developments will have a tangible technological impact in a way that will help the Australian biomedical industry be more competitive in the global market.Read moreRead less
