Since pre-silicon functional verification is insufficient to detect all design errors, re-spins are often needed due to malfunctions that escape into the silicon. This paper pre...
Finite-state machine (FSM) models are commonly used to represent software with concurrent processes. Established model checking tools can be used to automatically test FSM models,...
We study the issue of performance prediction on the SGIPower Challenge, a typical SMP. On such a platform, the cost of memory accesses depends on their locality and on contention ...

The estimation of reliability of modules using code coverage is motivated by a two-phase method for estimating the quality of software using static structure and predicted quality...
Fault insertion based techniqueshave been used for measuring test adequacy and testability of programs. Mutation analysis inserts faults into a program with the goal of creating m...
