These activities call for flexible, yet efficient tools that allow for automated execution. This paper describes the development of an independent Testing Development Environment (TDE) as a platform for designing testing and characterization procedures for use in a production line setting. The proposed platform supports DC, parametric, and noise measurement capabilities in a modular, designer customizable library of testing functions. The platform structure, customization protocols, and I/O formats are discussed, along with the process of populating its function library with procedures for evaluating passive and active devices with diverse requirements and formats. Over four dozen testing procedures have been added to the tool. User-level interactions are used to illustrate the easiness of use and flexibility of this platform.","PeriodicalId":173735,"journal":{"name":"2012 13th Latin American Test Workshop (LATW)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122989803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among these interconnect opens are an important defect mechanism that requires detailed knowledge of its physical properties. Furthermore, in nanometer process variability is predominant and considering only nominal value of parameters is not realistic. In this work the detection capability of Low Voltage Testing for interconnect opens, considering process variations, is evaluated using a statistical model. To account for this the Probability of Detection of the defect is obtained. The proposed methodology is implemented in a software tool to determine the probability of detection of via opens for some ISCAS85 benchmark circuits. The results suggest that using Low Vdd in conjunction with favorable test vectors allow to improve the Probability of Detection of interconnect opens leading to better test quality.","PeriodicalId":173735,"journal":{"name":"2012 13th Latin American Test Workshop (LATW)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122554199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this way, WSN solutions are based on a huge number of cheap tiny nodes that can present faults in hardware, software and wireless communication. The deployment of hundreds of nodes can overcome the low dependability of individual nodes, however this strategy introduces a lot of challenges regarding network management, real-time requirements and self-optimization.

Mutation testing is an important criterion which uses mistakes made by software developers to derive test requirements. To apply this criterion in context of concurrent programs it is necessary to consider the implicit features of these programs, such as: communication, synchronization and non-determinism. Due to the non-determinism, special attention must be given during the mutant behavior analysis. This paper presents a set of mutation operators for concurrent programs in MPI (Message Passing Interface). This mutation operators set was defined based on typical errors of concurrent programs, extracted from literature. An example is presented to illustrate the application of the mutation operators to reveal faults in MPI programs.","PeriodicalId":173735,"journal":{"name":"2012 13th Latin American Test Workshop (LATW)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127293993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple faults induced by single event effects are expected to be seen more often. Thus, reliability has become an important design criterion. In this context we introduce a cost-aware methodology for selective hardening of combinational logic cells. The methodology is based on the SPRA algorithm for calculating logical masking, and it is capable to automatically perform a trade-off between reliability improvements and associated costs, providing a list of the most effective candidates for hardening. The methodology is applied to a set of benchmark circuits using costs extracted from an actual standard cell library. The results then show that the methodology is able to diminish the unreliability of circuits in a cost-effective manner.","PeriodicalId":173735,"journal":{"name":"2012 13th Latin American Test Workshop (LATW)","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126899795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, SRAM's robustness is considered crucial to guarantee the reliability of such SoCs over lifetime. In this context, one of the most important phenomena degrading nano-scale SRAMs reliability is related to Negative-Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI). This paper proposes a new approach based on an On-Chip Aging Sensor (OCAS) to detect SRAM aging during system lifetime. The sensor is able to detect any specific aging state of a cell in the SRAM array. The strategy is based on the connection of an OCAS per SRAM column, which periodically performs off-line testing by monitoring write operations into the SRAM cells to detect aging. The approach is application-transparent since it is does not change the SRAM contents after testing. To prevent OCAS from aging by one side and from dissipating static power by the other side, OCAS circuitry is powered-off during idle periods. SPICE simulations in a 65nm CMOS technology demonstrate the high sensor sensitivity to detect early aging states and so, guarantying high memory reliability. Furthermore, area overhead due to sensor insertion is almost negligible.","PeriodicalId":173735,"journal":{"name":"2012 13th Latin American Test Workshop (LATW)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126552948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
