To leverage the computing power of multicore machines in ATPG, we developed a highly efficient parallel ATPG system based on dynamic fault partition and shared memory. The system takes advantage of built-in efficiency of parallel search to achieve good performance speedup with no sacrifices in pattern quality or test coverage.
