Abstract :
HiTest is a special-purpose, dynamically reconfigurable, multiple single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) architecture designed for highly parallel software testing. The architecture can substantially reduce the total time needed for testing. It is particularly well suited for mutation analysis. The architecture and its use for mutation analysis and software testing in general are described, and the results of a performance analysis are reported.<>
