Software testing is a proven technique widely used to increase confidence that a software product behaves as expected and to gather system usage information to support evolution. Many structural coverage criteria techniques are used to perform and measure testing activities, but their complete satisfaction is rarely achieved resulting in code release with neglected test obligations. This paper ...

Although there are quite a few approaches to Coverage Directed test Generation aided by Machine Learning which have been applied successfully to small and medium size digital designs, it is not clear how they would scale on more elaborate industrial-level designs. This paper evaluates one of these techniques, called MicroGP, on a fully fledged industrial design. The results indicate relative su...

When solving kin a Row games, the Hales-Jewett pairing strategy [4] is a well-known strategy to prove that specific positions are (at most) a draw. It requires two empty squares per possible winning line (group) to be marked, i.e., with a coverage ratio of 2.0. In this paper we present a new strategy, called Set Matching. A matching set consists of a set of nodes (the markers), a set of possibl...

Coordination is critical in distributed collaborative analysis of multidimensional data. Collaborating analysts need to understand what each person has done and what avenues of analysis remain uninvestigated in order to effectively coordinate their efforts. Although visualization history has the potential to communicate such information, common history representations typically show sequential ...

Testing is one of the very important component of software development process. Properly generated test sequences may not only locate the defects in software, but also help in reducing the high cost associated with software testing. It is often desired that test sequences should be automatically generated to achieve required test coverage. Automatic test sequence generation is a major problem i...

As large-scale wireless networks continue to proliferate, a reliable way to test coverage and communicate requirements becomes increasingly important. In this paper we discuss concerns and provide guidelines to consider when developing a coverage testing methodology for large-scale wireless networks. We propose a method which complies with these guidelines and apply it to a large municipal mesh...
