A SYSTEMATIC TREATMENT OF ERROR PROPAGATION FOR DESIGN EVALUATION AND PROCESS CONTROL OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES,

Abstract

A wide range of problems on error treatment involving a large number (say, between 10 and 100) interdependent device parameters can be approached systematically by graphical techniques. Representative examples from recent publications on design evaluation and control of electronic devices illustrate how flow graphs can be used to assess graphically error propagation. Applications occur in (i) the formulation of a problem, (ii) its analytical solution, (iii) its numerical evaluation. It is demonstrated that these graphical techniques reduce the amount of exposition, the computational effort, and the time required to communicate the solution of technical problems by at least a factor of ten.
