  • Abstract
    A distributed self-diagnosis algorithm for VLSI mesh arrays with small clusters of faults is presented. It allows only fault-free cells to make decisions and to propagate diagnosis results. Its time complexity is constant with respect to the number of processors. The diagnosability is proportional to the array size.<>
