Research abstract

THE OBJECTIVE OF PHASE I OF THIS PROJECT IS TO 1) SPECIFY COMPUTATIONALLY EFFICIENT ANALYTIC ALGORITHMS THAT WILL DETECT WIDE CLASSES OF LOGICAL STRUCTURES IN INTEGRATED CIRCUITS (ICS) THAT INHIBIT CIRCUIT TESTABILITY, AND TO 2) SPECIFY A STRATEGY FOR DETERMINING WHICH OF THESE LOGICAL STRUCTURES TO SEARCH FOR IN ICS. IN PHASE II, THE SPECIFIED ALGORITHMS WILL BE CODED AND THE SEARCH STRATEGY IMPLEMENTED. THIS WILL YIELD A CODE THAT WILL EFFICIENTLY DETECT TESTABILITY-INHIBITING LOGICAL STRUCTURES IN ORDER TO ASSESS THE FAULT COVERAGE OF ICS. THIS APPROACH COULD GREATLY REDUCE DEPENDENCE ON THE CURRENT APPROACH TO DETERMINING FAULT COVERAGE IN ICS THAT IS BASED ON TIME CONSUMING AND CPU-INTENSIVE SIMULATIONS.
