Guaranteeing Testability in Re-encoding for Low Power
This paper considers the testability implications of low power design methodologies. Low power and high testability are shown to be highly contrasting requirements, and an optimiz...

High-level variable selection for partial-scan implementation
In this paper, we propose a high-level variable selection for partial-scan approach to improve the testability of digital systems. The testability of a design is evaluated at the ...

Testability, fault size and the domain-to-range ratio: An eternal triangle
A number of different concepts have been proposed that, loosely speaking, revolve around the notion of software testability. Indeed, the concept of testability itself has been int...

Testability Analysis of a UML Class Diagram
Design-for-testability is a very important issue in software engineering. It becomes crucial in the case of OO designs where control flows are generally not hierarchical, but are d...
