본 논문은 3차원적 분할공간 환경에서 종래의 음영검사법과 Crow의 음영입체법을 상황에 따라 우리하도록 선택하는 혼합음영검사법을 소개하고 파라메타화를 통하여 그 선택의 최적화를 꾀하였다. 추가적인 선행계산시간이 소요됨에도 불구하고 제안된 혼합음영검사법은 여러가지 예제화면들에 재하여 종래의 방법에 비하여 음영계산시간에 있어서는 50%, 전체묘화시간에 있어서는 30%정도씩의 CPU시간단축효과를 보였다. 그 원인은 음영검사의 선택적 사용을 통하여 그림자영역의 일관성(coherency)을 이용한데에 있다. 연속되는 두 반사점사이에 존재하는 음영다각형의 갯수를 나타내는 $N_{th}$라는 파라메타가 음영검사의 효과적 선택을 위한 지표가 되며, 묘화환경의 통계적 수치로부터 이 값을 알아내는 방법이 제안되고 실험적 결과와 비교된다.

최근 하나의 칩에 여러 개의 코어들로 구성된 SOC(System on Chip) 테스트 비용의 증가로 인해 SOC 테스트에 있어서 재사용 방법론과 효율적인 테스트 방법의 중요성이 더욱 커지게 되었다. SOC 테스트의 일반적인 문제는 TAM(Test Access Mechanism)의 구조 설계와 테스트 코어 wrapper의 최적화, 테스트 스케줄링이 있다. 이러한 SOC 테스트의 목표는 테스트 시간과 하드웨어 오버헤드의 최소화이다. 이를 위해서 코어 내부의 스캔 체인과 입출력을 보다 균형 있게 배분하여 더 적은 테스트 시간과 TAM 너비를 사용하도록 테스트 시간과 하드웨어 오버헤드를 동시에 고려하여 설계하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 SOC 테스트를 위한 비용을 줄일 수 있는 코어 테스트 wrapper 설계 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문의 제안 기법은 기존의 기법들의 장점을 취하고 단점을 보완함으로써 보다 적은 테스트 시간과 하드웨어 오버헤드를 가진다. 이를 입증하기 위해서 ITC'02 SOC 테스트 벤치마크 회로를 이용하여 실험을 하였다.

Crowd-based outsourcing is an emerging trend in testing, which integrates advantages of crowd-based outsourcing in software testing. Open call format is used to accomplish various network tasks involving different types of testing levels and techniques at various places by software testers. Crowd-sourced software testing can lead to an improper testing process as if it does not allocate the right task to the right crowd with required skills and not choose the right crowd; it can lead to huge results, which become time-consuming and challenging crowd-source manager for the identification of improper one. The primary purpose of this research is to make crowd-based outsourced software testing more effective and reliable by relating association between the software tester, personality characteristic, and different levels of software testing, i.e., unit, integration, and system, in order to find appropriate personality characteristic for required testing level. This research has shown an observed experiment to determine which software testing level suits which personality characteristic tester in a crowd-based software testing environment. A total of 1000 software testers from different software houses and firms in Pakistan were registered to perform tasks at different software testing levels. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test is used to identify each tester's personality characteristic involved in this research study.

소프트웨어 자동 테스팅 도구를 이용하여 테스트 프로세스의 전부 또는 일부를 자동화함으로써 테스트시간의 단축과 테스트 비용을 줄일 수 있다 그러나 하나의 테스팅 도구를 이용하여 이질적인 컴퓨팅 환경에서 다양한 종류의 테스트 요구 사항을 모두 충족시킨다는 것은 현실적으로 불가능하다 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 자동 테스팅 도구의 분류 기준을 제시하고, 이를 기반으로 상용화된 테스팅 도구들의 특성을 조사, 분석하여 테스팅 도구의 발전 로드맵을 제시함으로써 테스팅 도구들 상호간의 관계성 이해와 향후 테스팅 도구들의 발전 방향을 모색하고자 한다.

전류 테스팅은 기존의 전압 테스트 방식에 비해서 높은 고장 검출과 진단 능력을 가진 효과적인 테스트 방식이다. 그러나 상대적으로 느린 전류 테스팅을 위해서 항상 같은 값을 가지는 노드를 찾아내어 제거하는 효율적인 검출 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 전류 테스팅을 위한 다양한 고장모델에 적용 가능한 객체기반의 고장 검출 기법을 제안한다. ISCAS 벤치마크 회로의 실험결과을 통해서 제안된 방식이 고려되는 고장의 수를 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있고 다양한 전류 테스팅 고장모델에 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.

In general, accelerated life testing is performed to reduce testing time. But it is difficult to apply accelerated life testing to a system besides components. This paper developed a software which estimates reliability measures of the system from results of accelerated life testing of components building the system. This software can handle the system with a large number of components and complex topology. Multiple failure modes of a component were also considered in this software. Based on the software, reliability measures of a gearbox example at several conditions were estimated from the accelerated life testing results of three components of the gearbox.

The usefulness of the magnetic camera for non-destructive testing of aging aircraft is discussed in this paper. The magnetic camera can be used f magnetic particle testing(MT), magnetic flux leakage testing(MFLT), eddy current testing(ECT) and penetration testing(PT). It measures the distribution of a magnetic field and visualizes the magnetic pattern. Near and far side cracks, fatigue, thickness degradation, and cracks under rivets have been detected. The possibility of quantitative evaluation was also examined. Using indirect experiments, we verified the detection ability of the sensor for cracks in titanium and advanced composite materials.

Traditional software testing typically uses many physical resources to manually build various test environments, resulting in high resource costs and long test time due to limited resources, especially for small enterprises. Cloud computing can provide sufficient low-cost virtual resources to alleviate these problems through the virtualization of physical resources. However, the provision of various test environments and services for implementing software testing rapidly and conveniently based on cloud computing is challenging. This paper proposes a multilayer cloud testing model based on cloud computing and implements a hybrid cloud testing system based on virtual machines (VMs) and networks. This system realizes the automatic and rapid creation of test environments and the remote use of test tools and test services. We conduct experiments on this system and evaluate its applicability in terms of the VM provision time, VM performance and virtual network performance. The experimental results demonstrate that the performance of the VMs and virtual networks is satisfactory and that this system can improve the test efficiency and reduce test costs through rapid virtual resource provision and convenient test services.

An experimental method denoted as Impulse Method is proposed as a cost-effective non-destructive technique for the on-site evaluation of concrete elastic modulus in existing structures: on the basis of Hertz's quasi-static theory of elastic impact and with the aid of a simple portable testing equipment, it makes it possible to collect series of local measurements of the elastic modulus in an easy way and in a very short time. A Hypothesis Testing procedure is developed in order to provide a statistical tool for processing the data collected by means of the Impulse Method and assessing the possible occurrence of significant variations in the elastic modulus without exceeding some prescribed error probabilities. It is based on a particular formulation of the renowned sequential probability ratio test and reveals to be optimal with respect to the error probabilities and the required number of observations, thus further improving the time-effectiveness of the Impulse Method. The results of an experimental investigation on different types of plain concrete prove the validity of the Impulse Method in estimating the unknown value of the elastic modulus and attest the effectiveness of the proposed Hypothesis Testing procedure in identifying significant variations in the elastic modulus.

Safety critical systems, real time systems, and event-based systems have a complex set of events and their own interdependency, which makes them difficult to test ma Safety critic Safety critical systems, real time systems, and event-based systems have a complex set of events and their own interdependency, which makes them difficult to test manually. In order to cut down on costs, save time, and increase reliability, the model based testing approach is the best solution. Such an approach does not require applications or codes prior to generating test cases, so it leads to the early detection of faults, which helps in reducing the development time. Several model-based testing approaches have used different UML models but very few works have been reported to show the generation of test cases that use events. Test cases that use events are an apt choice for these types of systems. However, these works have considered events that happen at a user interface level in a system while other events that happen in a system are not considered. Such works have limited applications in testing the GUI of a system. In this paper, a novel model-based testing approach is presented using business events, state events, and control events that have been captured directly from requirement specifications. The proposed approach documents events in event templates and then builds an event-flow model and a fault model for a system. Test coverage criterion and an algorithm are designed using these models to generate event sequence based test scenarios and test cases. Unlike other event based approaches, our approach is able to detect the proposed faults in a system. A prototype tool is developed to automate and evaluate the applicability of the entire process. Results have shown that the proposed approach and supportive tool is able to successfully derive test scenarios and test cases from the requirement specifications of safety critical systems, real time systems, and event based systems.
