The Small Book About Design-for-Test
This book is designed for individuals working in the semiconductor industry who need a fundamental understanding of Design-for-Test (DfT) methods. It caters to test and product engineers who typically utilize these methods, as well as chip designers, project managers, and business owners who seek to comprehend the value of implemented DfT methods. Additionally, it serves as a starting point for beginners in DfT before delving deeper into implementation tools and test pattern generation tasks. Originating from a university lecture, the core content of this book has expanded over the years. It bridges the gap between theoretical textbook descriptions of DfT and its practical application in the industry. The goal is to present DfT as a collection of methods that maintain manufacturing test costs at a level that allows for reasonable selling prices, even for complex products utilizing the latest silicon technologies. The book is structured into three parts: - The first part provides a summary of DfT techniques and an introduction to pattern generation techniques. - The second part delves into established DfT techniques for special analogmixed signal circuits and memories within the industry. - The third part proposes a systematic approach to test concept engineering, maximizing the benefits of DfT methodologies. By exploring the fundamentals and advanced concepts of DfT, this book aims to equip readers with the knowledge and tools necessary to contribute to the ongoing innovation in semiconductor testing and development.

Social Media Archeology and Poetics
First person accounts by pioneers in the field, classic essays, and new scholarship document the collaborative and creative practices of early social media. Focusing on early social media in the arts and humanities and on the core role of creative computer scientists, artists, and scholars in shaping the pre-Web social media landscape, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents social media lineage, beginning in the 1970s with collaborative ARPANET research, Community Memory, PLATO, Minitel, and ARTEX and continuing into the 1980s and beyond with the Electronic Caf矇, Art Com Electronic Network, Arts Wire, The THING, and many more. With first person accounts from pioneers in the field, as well as papers by artists, scholars, and curators, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents how these platforms were vital components of early social networking and important in the development of new media and electronic literature. It describes platforms that allowed artists and musicians to share and publish their work, community networking diversity, and the creation of footholds for the arts and humanities online. And it invites comparisons of social media in the past and present, asking: What can we learn from early social media that will inspire us to envision a greater cultural presence on contemporary social media?

Technocreep and the Politics of Things Not Seen
New and emerging technologies, especially ones that infiltrate intimate spaces, relations, homes, and bodies, are often referred to as creepy in media and political discourses. In Technocreep and the Politics of Things Not Seen, Neda Atanasoski and Nassim Parvin introduce a feminist theory of creep that they substantiate through critical engagement with smart homes, smart dust, smart desires, and smart forests toward dreams of feminist futures. Contributing authors further illuminate what is otherwise obscured, assumed, or dismissed in characterizations of technology as creepy or creeping. Considering diverse technologies such as border surveillance and China's credit system to sexcams and home assistants, the volume's essays and artworks demonstrate that the potentials and pitfalls of artificial intelligence and digital and robotic technologies cannot be assessed through binaries of seeing/being seen, privacy/surveillance, or harmful/useful. Together, their multifaceted and multimodal approach transcends such binaries, accounting for technological relations that exceed sight to include touch, presence, trust, and diverse modes of collectivity. As such, this volume develops creep as a feminist analytic and creative mode on par with technology's complex entanglement with intimate, local, and global politics. Contributors. Neda Atanasoski, Katherine Bennett, Iv獺n Chaar L籀pez, Sushmita Chatterjee, Hayri Dortdivanlioglu, Sanaz Haghani, Jacob Hagelberg, Jennifer Hamilton, Antonia Hern獺ndez, Marjan Khatibi, Tamara Kneese, Erin McElroy, Vernelle A.
