Abstract :
In spite of good intentions, and the work of many people over many years, test engineers and design engineers are still divided by a great chasm. Design information is still thrown "over the wall" to test, and information from test is seldom reflected back in design. The authors present a systems framework that allows models to be used as design rule specifications in the design process, used as test requirements in the test process, and modified by measurement data from the production floor
