Abstract

This paper presents a system-level diagnosis algorithm for hypercube multicomputer systems based on the PMC model. The algorithm can isolate all faulty processors to a set with at most one fault-free processor. The breadth-first search (BFS) is applied in the new algorithm. Let N denote the total number of processors in a hypercube system. With the help of properties of hypercube tree defined in this paper and a new tree-decomposition technique, the algorithm runs in O( N) time if log 2 N ⩾ 10; whereas the best-known diagnosis algorithm runs in O( N log 2 N) time if log 2 N ⩾ 19.
