Overview

　This Research Area covers the R & D of fundamental technologies for the VLSI system that can guarantee high reliability and high security. It is a societal requirement today to guarantee the reliability and security of information systems, on which human activities depend to an ever increasing extent. The VLSI, its engine, is also a gigantic system itself containing a huge number of circuit elements, and its reliability and security is at the core of those of any information system. This Research Area addresses problems that have to be solved to realize VLSI systems with advanced levels of integration, while ensuring required reliability and security.
