چکیده

Stochastic testing is one of the most powerful tools for verification of hardware design. To simplify the generation of random tests and to create a tool for testing processors of the MIPS64 architecture, the system named INTEG has been developed. The system has demonstrated its merits in verification of a new microprocessor. Here we give a description of the system’s main components, as well as a review of the principles of random testing, implemented in INTEG. Key-Words: Hardware verification, stochastic testing, biases, MIPS64, random test generation.

Design of Nondestructive System for Hardness of Carbonitrided Steel Parts ‎Using Eddy Current Testing Method: Case study on the Tappet Parts

In this paper, a non-destructive eddy current test system was designed to evaluate the surface hardness of the carbonitrided steel parts. For this purpose, various samples of the tappet were used after the surface hardening and grinding operations as control samples and, if necessary, were subjected to destructive and non-destructive tests. Microstructural studies were performed with a microsco...

Stochastic Congestion Management Considering Power System Uncertainties

Congestion management in electricity markets is traditionally done using deterministic values of power system parameters considering a fixed network configuration. In this paper, a stochastic programming framework is proposed for congestion management considering the power system uncertainties. The uncertainty sources that are modeled in the proposed stochastic framework consist of contingencie...
