METHODS FOR DISTRIBUTING PROGRAMS FOR GENERATING TEST DATA
摘要:
Described herein are methods and systems for distributed execution of circuit testing algorithms, or portions thereof. Distributed processing can result in faster processing. Algorithms or portions of algorithms that are independent from each other can be executed in a non-sequential manner (e.g., parallel) over a network of plurality of processors. The network comprises a controlling processor that can allocate tasks to other processors and conduct the execution of some tasks on its own. Dependent algorithms, or portions thereof, can be performed on the controlling processor or one of the controlled processors in a sequential manner. To ensure consistency between the performance of algorithms, or portions thereof, in a distributed manner and a non-distributed manner, the order of processing results from execution is according to some pre-determined order, or according to the order in which the results would have been processed during a non-distributed (e.g., sequential) execution, for instance. For algorithms that are highly sequential in nature, portions of algorithms can be modified to delay the need for dependent results between algorithm portions by creating a rolling window of independent tasks that is iterated.
