Calculating Criticalities

Optimization of Selection of Test Sets for Circuits

Generating a test set based on knowledge of the criticalities of all the faults in a given circuit can yield good test coverage. Yet criticalities are costly to calculate. In this paper, a method is proposed of minimizing the number of calculations of criticalities to as much as 12.5% of the original number of criticality calculations while maintaining similar product quality. Additionally, the...

Probabilities and Mixed-Criticalities: the Probabilistic C-Space

Probability distributions bring flexibility as well as accuracy in modeling and analyzing real-time systems. On the other end, the adding of probabilities increases the complexity of the scheduling problem, especially in case of mixed-criticalities where tasks of different criticalities have to be taken into account on the same computing platform. In this work we explore the flexibility of prob...

CAAC - An Adaptive and Proactive Access Control Approach for Emergencies for Smart Infrastructures

The paper presents an access control model called Criticality Aware Access Control (CAAC) for criticality (emergency) management in smart-infrastructures. Criticalities are consequences of events which take a system (in our case, a smart-infrastructure) into an unstable state. They require the execution of specific response actions in order to bring them under control. The principal aim of CAAC...

Models of Urban Land Use in Europe: Assessment Tools and Criticalities

The aim of this paper is to examine available homogenous data on urban conversion of land in Western European countries and determine whether they are suitable to make an international comparison between land policies and management behaviour at the local level. This paper provides some results obtained from currently available information, but it stresses major data production criticalities wh...

Benchmark Test of JEF-1 Evaluation by Calculating Fast Criticalities

JEF-1 basic evaluation was tested by calculating fast critical experiments using the cross section discrete-ordinates transport code ONEDANT with P3S16 approximation. In each computation a spherical one dimensional model was used, together with a 174 neutron group VITAMIN-E structured JEF-1 based nuclear data library, generated at EIR with NJOY and TRANSX-CTR. It is found that the JEF-1 evaluat...
