Abstract :
When gates cost much less than wires, when automatic self-repair is a must, and when power and labor are costly and scarce, then systems design will be different than in the past. Assessed will be the characteristics of post LSI systems which will use time division to save wires, will be serial if possible, switch centered for automatic repair and should make use of microprocessors, even if only for monitoring and reconfiguration.
