  text: Ultrasonic wire bonding is a solid-state joining process, used in the electronics
    industry to form electrical connections, e.g. to connect electrical terminals
    within semiconductor modules. Many process parameters affect the bond strength,
    such like the bond normal force, ultrasonic power, wire material and bonding frequency.
    Today, process design, development, and optimization is most likely based on the
    knowledge of process engineers and is mainly performed by experimental testing.
    In this contribution, a newly developed simulation tool is presented, to reduce
    time and costs and efficiently determine optimized process parameter. Based on
    a co-simulation of MATLAB and ANSYS, the different physical phenomena of the wire
    bonding process are considered using finite element simulation for the complex
    plastic deformation of the wire and reduced order models for the transient dynamics
    of the transducer, wire, substrate and bond formation. The model parameters such
    as the coefficients of friction between bond tool and wire and between wire and
    substrate were determined for aluminium and copper wire in experiments with a
    test rig specially developed for the requirements of heavy wire bonding. To reduce
    simulation time, for the finite element simulation a restart analysis and high
    performance computing is utilized. Detailed analysis of the bond formation showed,
    that the normal pressure distribution in the contact between wire and substrate
    has high impact on bond formation and distribution of welded areas in the contact
    area.

  text: Existing approaches and tools for the generation of approximate circuits often
    lack generality and are restricted to certain circuit types, approximation techniques,
    and quality assurance methods. Moreover, only few tools are publicly available.
    This hinders the development and evaluation of new techniques for approximating
    circuits and their comparison to previous approaches. In this paper, we ﬁrst analyze
    and classify related approaches and then present CIRCA, our ﬂexible framework
    for search-based approximate circuit generation. CIRCA is developed with a focus
    on modularity and extensibility. We present the architecture of CIRCA with its
    clear separation into stages and functional blocks, report on the current prototype,
    and show initial experiments.
