Abstract

In this paper, we describe distributed algorithms for combinational fault simulation assuming the classical stuck‐at fault model. Our algorithms have been implemented on a network of Sun workstations under the Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) environment. Two techniques are used for subdividing work among processors – test set partition and fault set partition. The sequential algorithm for fault simulation, used on individual nodes of the network, is based on a novel path compression technique proposed in this paper. We describe experimental results on a number of ISCAS′85 benchmark circuits.
