TESTING VLSI CIRCUIT USING ARTIFICIAL IMMUNE SYSTEM

C. P. Souza, R. C. S. Freire, F. M. Assis
Abstract:
A VLSI circuit test scheme taking inspiration from the Human Immune System is presented. Such a scheme is based on the Negative-Selection Mechanism which provides the human body with the capability to discriminate between the self (body’s own cell) and any foreign cell (non-self). Based on this, it is design a output response analyzer which is able to evaluate is the circuit is faulty. Experimental results showing the effectively of the proposed scheme are presented.
