Abstract :
Alternative graphs provide an efficient, uniform model describing the structure, functions, and faults in a wide class of digital circuits and for different representation levels. For test pattern generation, they provide a general theoretical basis for combining high-level approaches, symbolic techniques based on binary decision diagrams, and traditional topological algorithms
