Abstract :
This paper deals with a fault detection and diagnosis technique based on Boolean differences. A brief review of the notion of a Boolean difference is presented, and the concept of partial Boolean difference is introduced. An algorithm for obtaining minimal, complete sets of test-input sequences based on the partial Boolean differences of a switching function is formulated, and illustrations demonstrating the use of the technique are presented.
