Abstract
A method and a system including a processor performing a failure region exploration through uniform sampling of plurality of variables related to a circuit, the processor shifting probability distributions to explore failure probability, the processor estimating the failure probability and standard deviation by determining mean and standard deviation of failure probability of a circuit, the processor terminating sampling when a confidence interval bounds converge, and a peripheral device providing a report on the failure of the circuit when the sampling is terminated by the processor.
