본 논문에서는 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간이 짧고 높은 고장 검출률(fault coverage)을 얻을 수 있는 새로운 부분스캔 설계 기술을 제안한다. 순차회로에서 테스트패턴 생성을 용이하게 하기 위하여 완전스캔 및 부분스캔 설계 기술이 널리 이용되고 있다. 스캔 설계로 인한 추가영역을 최소화 하고 최대의 고장 검출률을 목표로 하는 부분스캔 기술은 크게 구조분석과 테스트 가능도(testability)에 의한 설계 기술로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔은 짧은 시간에 스캔플립프롭을 선택할 수 있지만 고장 검출률은 낮다. 반면 테스트 가능도에 의한 부분스캔은 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔보다 스캔플립프롭의 선택 시간이 많이 걸리는 단점이 있지만 높은 고장 검출률을 나타낸다. 본 논문에서는 구조분석에 의한 부분스캔과 테스트 가능도에 의한 부분스캔 설계 기술의 장단점을 비교.분석하여 통합함으로써 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간을 단축하고 고장 검출률을 높일 수 있는 새로운 부분스캔 설계 기술을 제안한다. 실험결과 대부분의 ISCAS89 벤치마크 회로에서 스캔플립프롭 선택 시간은 현격히 감소하였고 비교적 높은 고장 검출률을 나타내었다.Abstract This paper provides a new partial scan design technique which not only reduces the time for selecting scan flip-flops but also improves fault coverage. To simplify the problem of the test pattern generation in the sequential circuits, full scan and partial scan design techniques have been widely adopted. The partial scan techniques which aim at minimizing the area overhead while maximizing the fault coverage, can be classified into the techniques based on structural analysis and testabilities. In case of the partial scan by structural analysis, it does not take much time to select scan flip-flops, but fault coverage is low. On the other hand, although the partial scan by testabilities generally results in high fault coverage, it requires more time to select scan flip-flops than the former method. In this paper, we analyzed and unified the strengths of the techniques by structural analysis and by testabilities. The new partial scan design technique not only reduces the time for selecting scan flip-flops but also improves fault coverage. Test results demonstrate the remarkable reduction of the time to select the scan flip-flops and high fault coverage in most ISCAS89 benchmark circuits.

The software industry is a high value-added industry in the knowledge information age, and its importance is growing as it not only plays a key role in knowledge creation and utilization, but also secures global competitiveness. Among various SW available in today's business environment, Open Source Software(OSS) is rapidly expanding its activity area by not only leading software development, but also integrating with new information technology. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to empirically examine and analyze the effect of factors on the switching behavior to OSS. To accomplish the study's purpose, we suggest the research model based on "Push-Pull-Mooring" framework. This study empirically examines the two categories of antecedents for switching behavior toward OSS. The survey was conducted to employees at various firms that already switched OSS. A total of 268 responses were collected and analyzed by using the structural equational modeling. The results of this study are as follows; first, continuous maintenance cost, vender dependency, functional indifference, and SW resource inefficiency are significantly related to switch to OSS. Second, network-oriented support, testability and strategic flexibility are significantly related to switch to OSS. Finally, the results show that willingness to secures SW competitiveness has a moderating effect on the relationships between push factors and pull factor with exception of improved knowledge, and switch to OSS. The results of this study will contribute to fields related to OSS both theoretically and practically.
