  • Single fault detection in combinational logic circuits

    Creator:
    Medhekar, Ranjana A.
    Abstract:
    The material in this paper is divided into the following four chapters for convenience. Chapter 1 explains, how the idea of fault testing changed from testing the machine instructions to testing the hardware in logic circuits. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 present the different approaches considered, namely: 1. Path sensitizing...

  • Stochastic automata and the problems of reliability in sequential machines

    Creator:
    Parhami, Behrooz
    Abstract:
    The reliability of sequential machines is an important factor in their design and implementation. In this thesis, stochastic sequential machine models are employed to investigate some of the problems concerning the reliability of sequential machines. Two different methods are used to find the reliability required of individual elements. The first...

  • Cellular synthesis of synchronous sequential machines

    Creator:
    Hu, Sung Chiao
    Abstract:
    With the advancing solid-state technology, it is necessary to develop new techniques for synthesizing digital networks. The regular pattern of cellular circuits seems to be the best fitted for the new LSI technology. Recently, cellular implementations of comibinational circuits have received considerable attention but very little attention has been given...

  • Control of interconnection-limited sequential machines

    Creator:
    Riese, Keith Alfred
    Abstract:
    The problem considered is that of causing all the machines of an array to turn on simultaneously in the least amount of time. Each machine is a finite sequential machine that can communicate with a limited number of prescribed neighbor machines. A solution for a linear array of these machines,...

  • The equivalence of regular expressions

    Creator:
    Yu, Ting Kwong
    Abstract:
    The use of Regular Expressions to represent the conditions of operations of a finite automaton is becoming popular. A finite automaton can be represented by several regular expressions which are entirely different in out-looks and in structures. It is the primary purpose of this paper to develop several approaches to...

  • Computer performance and evaluation utilizating the resource planning and management system

    Creator:
    Elliott, Jimmie Lynn
    Abstract:
    A review of current computer performance and evaluation techniques reveals a lack of an acceptable analytic tool for optimal computer system performance and evaluation. A generalized approach to the formulation of a third generation computer system model is proposed. The approach is used to optimize computer resource utilization and to...

  • The design of fault detection experiments for sequential machines using homogeneous distinguishing sequences

    Creator:
    Holt, John Douglas
    Abstract:
    The design of checking experiments for sequential machines which do not initially have a distinguishing sequence is investigated. Improvem,Jnts are suggested to an existing method for augmenting the output logic so that the machine acquires homogeneous distinguishing sequences. To indicate how the procedure may be implemented on a computer, elements...

  • Specifications for a fuzzy system modeling language

    Creator:
    Fellinger, William Lowell
    Abstract:
    Specifications for a simulation language capable of modeling fuzzy systems are presented. Actions occurring in the running model are to be displayed on a graphics terminal in the .form of modified E-nets. The concept of partial execution of predicates is introduced in connection with the underlying continuously valued logic. Fuzzy...

  • Multiple-fault detection in iterative arrays

    Creator:
    Ramamurti, Chandramouli
    Abstract:
    With the advent of LSI, iterative forms of realization of digital systems are becoming increasingly popular with system designers. Many problems occurring in digital computer design render themselves suitable for iterative realization. These include adders, arithmetic logic units, coding and decoding circuits and so on. Fault-free functioning of such systems...
