Power-constrained block-test list scheduling

Valentin Mureşan, Xiaojun Wang, V. Muresan, Mircea Vlăduţiu · 2000

A list scheduling approach is proposed in this paper to overcome the problem of unequal-length block-test scheduling under power dissipation constraints. An extended tree growing technique is also used in combination with the list scheduling algorithm in order to improve the test concurrency, having assigned power dissipation limits. Moreover, the algorithm features a power dissipation balancing provision. Test scheduling examples are discussed, highlighting further research steps towards an efficient system-level test scheduling algorithm.
