چکیده

Here, the method proposed in [13] for constructing minimal-length checking sequences based on distinguishing sequences is improved. The improvement is based on optimizations of the state recognition sequences and their use in constructing test segments. It is shown that the proposed improvement further reduces the length of checking sequences produced from minimal, completely specified, and deterministic finite state machines.

Generating Checking Sequences for Partial Reduced Finite State Machines

The problem of generating checking sequences for FSMs with distinguishing sequence has been attracting interest of researchers for several decades. In this paper, a solution is proposed for partial reduced FSMs with distinguishing sets, and either with or without reset feature. Sufficient conditions for a sequence to be a checking sequence for such FSMs are formulated. Based on these conditions...

Adaptive Design Methods for Checking Sequences

The length of checking sequences for sequential machines can be considerably reduced if, instead of preset distinguishing sequences, one uses so-called "distinguishing sets" of sequences, which serve the same purpose but are generally shorter. The design of such a set turns out to be equivalent to the design of an adaptive distinguishing experiment, * though a checking sequence, using a disting...

Generalizing Redundancy Elimination in Checking Sequences

Based on a distinguishing sequence for a Finite State Machine (FSM), an efficient checking sequence may be produced from the elements of a set Eα′ of α′–sequences and a set ET of T–sequences, that both recognize the states, and elements of EC which represents the transitions in the FSM. An optimization algorithm may then be used to produce a reduced length checking sequence by connecting the el...

Reducing the Lengths of Checking Sequences by Overlapping

There are two main shortcomings in the existing models for generating checking sequences based on distinguishing sequences. First, these models require a priori selection of state recognition sequences (called αsequences) which may not be the best selection for yielding substantial reduction in the length of checking sequences. Second, they do not take advantage of overlapping to further reduce...

Reduced checking sequences using unreliable reset

The length of a checking sequence (CS) generated from a deterministic, minimal, and completely specified finite state machine model M of a system under test which does not have a reliable reset feature, is exponential when M does not have a distinguishing sequence. This is due to the exponential length locating sequences that need to be used in such a CS. In this work, we propose a method to de...
