Evolving Cellular Automata for Self-Testing Hardware
Testing is a key issue in the design and production of digital circuits: the adoption of BIST (Built-In Self-Test) techniques is increasingly popular, but requires efficient algori...

On the Identification of Optimal Cellular Automata for Built-In Self-Test of Sequential Circuits
This paper presents a BIST architecture for Finite State Machines that exploits Cellular Automata (CA) as pattern generators and signature analyzers. The main advantage of the pro...

Seed encoding with LFSRs and cellular automata
Reseeding is used to improve fault coverage of pseudorandom testing. The seed corresponds to the initial state of the PRPG before filling the scan chain. In this paper, we present...
