ABOUT THE AUTHORS Manish Sharma received a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology in New Delhi in 1997 and a Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2003. From 2003 to 2004, he worked at Nvidia as a DFT engineer. Since 2004, he has been working with Mentor, a Siemens Business in the area of diagnosis and learning from volume diagnosis results. Currently, Sharma is the engineering manager of the silicon learning group at Mentor. Yan Pan is a product diagnostics engineering manager at GlobalFoundries, Fab 8 inMalta, N.Y. His work covers scan diagnostics, layout analysis and statistical volume diagnosis, and electrical fault isolation for advanced technologies at Fab 8. In addition, he leads an effort at Fab 8 to develop volume data analysis infrastructure to identify and resolve systematic yield issues using fab process, test, yield, and product design data. Pan received his Ph.D. in computer engineer- ing from Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., in 2011 and his M.S. degree in the same field from the National University of Singapore in 2006. He holds three patents and has published more than 20 papers from his work at Northwestern and GlobalFoundries.
