Digital Microfluidic Biochips: Synthesis, Testing, and Reconfiguration Techniques

By Krishnendu Chakrabarty and Fei Su

This book focuses on the automated design of microfluidic-based biochips for large-scale bioassays and safety-critical applications. Highlighing a new generation of biochips that offer dynamic reconfigurability, system scalability, system integration, and defect tolerance, the authors present a system-level design automation framework that addresses key issues in the design, analysis, and testing of digital microfluidic biochips. Topics include: operation scheduling, test resource optimization, fault detection while running normal bioassays, and reconfiguration-based techniques designed to increase the yield and dependability of digital microfluidic biochips.
