Abstract
This paper proposes a new artificial immune approach to on-line hardware test which is the most indispensable technique for fault tolerant hardware. A novel algorithm of generating tolerance conditions is suggested based on the principle of the antibody diversity. Tolerance conditions in artificial immune system correspond to the antibody in biological immune system. In addition, antigen presenting cell (APC) is realized by Quine-McCluskey method in this algorithm and tolerance conditions are generated through GA (Genetic Algorithm). The suggested method is applied to the on-line monitoring of a typical FSM (a decade counter) and its effectiveness is demonstrated by the computer simulation.
