Abstract:

The PMC system level fault model consists of a set of units capable of testing one another and a set of ordered pairs describing the organization of the tests. The model is defined by the fault-test relationship which specifies the test outcome in terms of the status of both the unit applying the test and the unit being tested. This paper considers only system diagnosis, and more specifically those properties of implied faulty sets that may be used for system diagnosis. Keywords Electrical engineering Computer science Algorithms.
