As a step toward learning whether the same kind of surprising result could occur in a biological system, Cohen started by looking for a mechanical analog of the traffic paradox, and he came up with the string-spring arrangement described above.
For the MIPS Technologies project, SABER will use fully-operational high-performance test cells integrating a Schlumberger ITS9000 high speed logic tester, an IDS 10000 e-beam-based diagnostic system and a P3X focused ion beam system for total design validation, modification and mechanical analog probing.
The Schlumberger IDS P3X is a state-of-the art FIB system that is used for modifying integrated circuits by providing access to interconnects for e-beam probing and mechanical analog probing.
