On Finding Consecutive Test Vectors in a Random Sequence for Energy-Aware BIST Design
During pseudorandom testing, a significant amount of energy and test application time is wasted for generating and for applying “useless” test vectors that do not contribute t...

A New Software Testing Approach Based on Domain Analysis of Specifications and Programs
Partition testing is a well-known software testing technique. This paper shows that partition testing strategies are relatively ineffective in detecting faults related to small sh...

Examining ACE analysis reliability estimates using fault-injection
ACE analysis is a technique to provide an early reliability estimate for microprocessors. ACE analysis couples data from performance models with low level design details to identi...

Dynamic power minimization during combinational circuit testing as a traveling salesman problem
Testing of VLSI circuits can cause generation of excessive heat which can damage the chips under test. In the random testing environment, high-performance CMOS circuits consume sig...

DS-LFSR: a BIST TPG for low switching activity
A test pattern generator (TPG) for built-in self-test (BIST), which can reduce switching activity during test application, is proposed. The proposed TPG, called dual-speed LFSR (DS...
