....part and a memory part (a set of flip flops) 2) in the functional way by STDs. The output functions and transition functions of the FSM are Boolean, and therefore can be represented by Structurally Synthesized BDDs (SSBDD) 16] For the second case, we use a general form of decision diagrams [17] which exploit integer variables for representing inputs, outputs and internal states of the FSM. In these graphs, node variables may have, in general, more than two values. There exists a one to one correspondence between the values of a node variable and the successors of the node. The number of ....

Hierarchical Test Generation Based on Alternative Graph Models - Raik (1997)   (Correct)

....test, functional test generation does not guarantee a very good correspondence with real physical defects. Current thesis presents a hierarchical test generation approach working on architectural (register transfer) and gate levels. The approach uses multi level alternative graph (AG) Ubar 76, Ubar 96a] descriptions for design modelling. The main advantage of AG models lies in the fact that a uniform concept can be applied on different system abstraction levels. In addition, alternative graph models provide a powerful means for solving different diagnostic tasks. 5 3 Alternative Graphs 3.1 ....

A Hierarchical Test Generation Technique for Embedded Systems - Jervan, Eles, Peng (1999)   (Correct)

....analysis for this particular problem has been studied, but not many efficient techniques have been developed yet. In our approach, testability evaluation and test generation at the system level are based on hierarchical test generation (HTG) 9] We apply HTG, using a decision diagram (DD) [12] based representation, and show that it can be used for both the hardware and software domains as well as for different levels of abstraction. 2. Hierarchical Test Generation for Hardware Software Systems Test generation has been proven to be an NP complete problem [6] There has been a lot of ....

....be Implemented in Software In our approach, decision diagrams are used for design modeling at the high abstraction levels. The main advantage of modelling with DDs lies in the fact that a uniform concept can be applied on different abstraction levels. An extended overview of DDs is presented in [12]. Our main objectives are to show how DDs can be used for test generation at the behavioural level and how HTG can be used for testing the part of the system which finally will be implemented as software. Hierarchical test generation technique for hardware has been reported at [8] At this level, ....

....gate delays. A novel method for delay simulation is developed based on Boolean derivatives and structurally synthesized binary decision diagrams (SSBDD) SSBDDs were introduced the first time in [3,4] as structural alternative graphs, and generalized for the multiple valued decision diagrams in [5]. In [6] SSBDDs were suggested for multivalued simulation of digital circuits for different purposes like hazards investigation [7] delay fault analysis [8] and fault cover analysis in dynamic testing [9] When using SSBDDs for representing macros, the complexity of the model will be ....

....a transition pattern given in Table 2. The bold arrows (in Fig. 2) mark the activated path in the graph before the transition. The shaded nodes are those involved in the transition, i.e. where the direction of the activated path changes. For the nodes g and h 1 we have max y g = max y h 1 = 1 [5]. Using the formula (2) we find that g h 1 = h e = U which means that at time t = 3 we may have a glitch on the output of the circuit. 5. The Timing Simulation Algorithms Using the SSBDD model gives us the possibility to minimize the number of macro inputs to be processed as well as the ....

....HDL based simulation approach [1] The general objective of the presented work is to improve the simulation performance of the DD based system representation by introducing the event driven paradigm to the cycle based simulation of the network of DDs. 2. Algorithms DDs have been described in [1,2] as a representation of digital systems given at various levels of abstraction. DDs are used in the paper to increase the speed of local simulation of components or subcircuits of the system. Three simulation algorithms are introduced to implement the idea of simulation execution according to ....

AGs were introduced for representing the functions of a system in the form of decision diagrams to reveal explicitly the signal cause effect relationships [9]. Fig.1. VHDL example of a digital system By tracing an AG model of a system for a given time moment (status) and input pattern, we determine a subset of nodes (variables) which are responsible for the system s behavior at this moment. If the system has a failure, then only the mentioned subset ....

....on the fault tree is employed. The method proposed is very costly in terms of CPU time and it seems not applicable to more complex systems. In this paper a new approach to generate a malicious fault list is presented, based on two different levels: at a high level, alternative graphs (AGs) [9,11] are applied to build the fault tree; a fault collapsing is then made on that tree, and the reduced fault list is converted so that it can be used together with the low level description. The approach developed in this paper helps to overcome the complexity problem inherent in low level ....

Alternative graphs and digital systems Alternative Graphs [9,11] can be used for representing digital functions y = F(Z) of components or subcircuits in digital systems. Here, y is an output variable and Z is a vector of input variables of a component. Alternative Graph is a directed acyclic graph G y = M, G, Z) with a set of nodes M, with a single root node ....

....from [1] where only the diagnosis problem is formulated and solved, in the present paper, the error detection and error diagnosis tasks are solved jointly which allows to increase the efficiency of error localization. The originality of this paper lies in using structurally synthesized BDDs [7, 8] which allowed to develop efficient higher level path activation and fault reasoning procedures for increasing the speed in test generation and fault diagnosis. The method is based on the stuck at fault model, where all the analysis and reasoning is carried out in terms of stuck at faults and only ....

....1 NOT(x 1 ) 0 1 NOT(x 2 ) 0 1 NOT(x 2 ) Table 1: Mapping between stuck at faults and gate errors 4. Representing circuits by macros and SSBDDs We now consider a method which was developed for macro level test generation based on using structurally synthesized BDDs (SSBDD) as the model for macros [7]. Test patterns are generated at the macro level, however the fault (and error) diagnosis is made at the gate level. Therefore, a correspondence should be established to map the macro level results back to the gate level. Consider a given implementation as a network of macros NF = f k , where ....
