  • Abstract
    An original approach to the testing and diagnostics of SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) systems is presented. Test algorithms for typical data processing elements of SIMDs are described and the problem of their optimal software implementation in the SIMD environment is discussed (concurrent testing, error coverage and time overhead). Fault localization procedures (diagnostics) are combined with testing processes.
