This book provides a comprehensive methodology for automated design,
test and diagnosis, and use of robust, low-cost, and manufacturable
digital microfluidic systems. It focuses on the development of a
comprehensive CAD optimization framework for digital microfluidic
biochips that unifies different design problems. With the increase in
system complexity and integration levels, biochip designers can utilize
the design methods described in this book to evaluate different design
alternatives, and carry out design-space exploration to obtain the best
design point.
