Aims: To clarify the decision-making and bereavement needs of family members who had
organ donation discussed with them; to provide a rationale for further preparation of …

A static compaction procedure to reduce test set size for scan designs and a procedure to
order test patterns in order to steepen the fault coverage curve are presented. The …

Testing system-on-chips involves applying huge amounts of test data, which is stored in the
tester memory and then transferred to the chip under test during test application. Therefore …

This paper proposes the algorithm based on the metaheuristic Ant Colony Optimization
(ACO) called Ant-Line, which uses the line-oriented approach for the set covering problem …

The growth of the Internet has been accompanied by the growth of e-services (eg e-
commerce, e-health). This proliferation of e-services and the increasing attacks on them by …

Aliasing in test response compaction is an important source of fault coverage loss. Methods
to avoid the aliasing mostly require modification of the compactor to some extent. This can …

Functional validation is a major bottleneck in microprocessor design methodology.
Simulation is the widely used method for functional validation using billions of random and …

This paper describes a new approach to static test compaction for scan circuits that modifies
tests in order to reduce the number of tests in a test set. The main contribution of this paper is …

Test suite reduction is to find a subset of the test suite containing a minimal number of test
cases that can satisfy all test requirements. Test suite reduction techniques attempt to …
