He is a co-founder of the International Conference on VLSI Design, and the VLSI Design and Test Symposium, held annually in India. He is the founder and Consulting Editor of the Springer's Frontiers in Electronic Testing Book Series. He is the founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Electronic Testing: Theory and Applications (since 1990), and a past Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Design & Test of Computers magazine. He has published over 350 papers, has coauthored five books and holds thirteen US patents. His book, Essentials of Electronic Testing for Digital, Memory and Mixed-Signal VLSI Circuits co-authored with M. L. Bushnell, published in 2000, is a widely used text in hardware testing.
His recent research has focused on optimizing testing in the context of varying clock frequencies and supply voltages.
Awards received by him include the 2012 Lifetime Contribution Medal from the Test Technology Technical Council of the IEEE Computer Society, and the 2006 Lifetime Achievement Award of the VLSI Society of India, "in recognition of his contributions to the area of VLSI test and for founding and steering the International Conference on VLSI Design in India", 1998 Harry H. Goode Memorial Award of the IEEE Computer Society for "innovativecontributions to the field of electronic testing," 2014 James Monzel Award from the IEEE North Atlantic Test Workshop and 1993 Distinguished Alumnus Award of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, "in recognition of his outstanding contributions in design and test of VLSI systems." He was made a fellow of IEEE in 1986 and of ACM in 2002.
He has supervised or co-supervised about 40 PhD students. Some of the notable among them are K.-T. Cheng, (PhD 1988, University of California, Berkeley, co-advisor), now professor at UC Santa Barbara, and S. T. Chakradhar, (PhD 1990, Rutgers University, co-advisor) now at NEC labs, Fei Hu (PhD 2006, Auburn, advisor), now at QualComm. He served as a coadvisor for PhD students at prestigious academic institutions even when he was an employee of AT&T Bell labs.
His other collaborators include Dr. Sharad Seth of University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Michael L. Bushnell of Rutgers (later with Spectral Design and Test Inc), both of whom have collaborated extensively with Vishwani Agrawal.
