Simulation Results of an Efficient Defect-Analysis Procedure
For obtaining a zero defect level, a high fault coverage with respect to the stuck-at fault model is often not sufficient as there are many defects that show a more complex behavi...

Minimizing concurrent test time in SoC's by balancing resource usage
We present a novel test scheduling algorithm for embedded corebased SoC’s. Given a system integrated with a set of cores and a set of test resources, we select a test for each c...
