A dynamic communication strategy for the distributed ATPG system DPLATON
M.J. Aguado, M.A. Miranda, Eduardo de la Torre, Carlos Alberto López Barrio · 2002
The structure of the distributed computing ATPG system DPLATON is presented, with special emphasis on the distribution strategy basis and the communication structures implemented. The proposed system is based on a dynamic fault list partition criterion. The standard remote procedure call (RPC) and external data representation (XDR) mechanisms have been adapted to construct an efficient dynamic distributed implementation. Reduced test sets and important CPU time speedup factors are reported.>
