Dynamic Scheduling of Test Routines for Efficient Online Self-Testing of Embedded Microprocessors
Nikolaos Bartzoudis, Vasileios Tantsios, Klaus Dieter McDonald-Maier · 2008
This paper presents a self-testing framework targeting the LEON3 embedded microprocessor with built-in test-scheduling features. The proposed design exploits existing post production test sets, designed for software-based testing of embedded microprocessors. The framework also includes a constraint-based approach of test-routine scheduling. The initial results show that the test execution time could be dynamically scaled by the test selection algorithm.
