Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, there has been remarkable progress in the manufacturing technology of LSIs (Large Scale Integration). During the development of LSIs, performance has historically been prioritized over power consumption reduction. However, with the widespread use of portable devices, the low power consumption of LSIs has become essential. To achieve low power consumption in LSIs, it is necessary to identify the factors contributing to high power consumption and locate high power consumption areas. Especially during testing, power consumption becomes high. Excessive power consumption caused excessive IR-drop resulting in test malfunction. While recent studies have made progress in identifying high power consumption areas based on the types of logic gates within the circuit, these researches focus on signal value transitions as a factor affecting power consumption. It is hypothesized that signal value transitions occurring at gates involved in branch and reconvergence, and the identification of such gates is crucial for investigating their relationship with power consumption. The signal transition probabilities commonly used in power consumption analysis become inaccurate when branch and reconvergences are included in the circuit, leading to the need for a more detailed investigation for power analysis.
