Abstract :
In this paper, we present a novel adaptive scheduling algorithm for testing embedded core-based SoC´s. Tests are scheduled in a way that dynamically partitions and allocates the tests, consequently constructing and updating a set of dynamically partitioned power constrained concurrent test sets, and ultimately reducing the test application time. A simulation study shows the productivity gained by our new approach.
