Abstract

The Knowledge Based approach to DFT and test generation depends heavily upon a storehouse of "knowledge" about DFT techniques and their application. The knowledge representation requirements of this Knowledge Based approach are analyzed. An integrated knowledge representation scheme called KRAFT which addresses the representation requirements is presented in detail, and a scenario of use of such a DFT system is outlined. KRAFT is based on principles of types, functional and relational programming.
