  • Abstract
    Due to the reconvergent fanouts which make the dependency among objectives and block the fault propagation, there may exist redundant faults in the circuits. This paper presents the isomorphism identification algorithm and the pseudo dominator algorithm which are used to identify redundant faults. Experimental results on ISCAS 85 benchmark circuits show that these algorithms are efficient in identifying redundant faults
