RTL Functional Test Generation Using Factored Concolic Execution
This thesis presents a novel concolic testing methodology and CORT, a test generation framework that uses it for high-level functional test generation. The test generation effort is visualized as the systematic unraveling of the control-flow response of the design over multiple (factored) …

A Multi-Language Goal-Tree Based Functional Test Planning System
Test plans are used to guide, organize and document the testing activities during hardware design process. Manual test planning and configuration is known to be labor intensive, time consuming and error prone. It is desirable to develop efficient approaches to model testing and to develop test …

Validation and Examination of Upper Extremity Kinematics in Typically Developing Children During the Box and Blocks Functional Test using Marker-based and Markerless Technology
… capture in clinical settings, clinicians use functional tasks to examine improvement in movement quality. However, some of these tasks, such as the Box and Block test (BBT), which is examined in this study, rely on scoring to assess motor improvement. This scoring method can be misleading due …

Design of thermal control systems for testing of electronics
… most components are subjected to a full functional test before they are sold. Depending on the type of components, these functional tests may be performed at room temperature, at cold temperature, or at high temperature (-50C to 1600C) depending on the type of component and intended …

Developing mission operations tools and procedures for the Microwave Radiometer Technology Acceleration (MiRaTA) CubeSat Mission
… (MicroMAS-1), used a manual approach to both testing and commanding. This approach did not work well when it came to mission operations, as it was error-prone, stressful, and non-repeatable. In this thesis work, we designed and implemented an automated testing framework for the Microwave …

Effect of Rat Strain Stereotactic Coordinates on Infarct Volume
… -2.5mm) and (AP +2.3; ML -2.5 mm). To analyze functional deficit, rats were subject to Montoya Staircase functional test once pre-stroke and twice post-stroke, and the Forelimb Asymmetry functional test once pre-stroke and thrice post-stroke. Results showed that Long Evans rats sustain a …

Branch Guided Metrics for Functional and Gate-level Testing
… invest a lot of time and resources into testing and validating these designs. To reduce the time-to-market and cost, the techniques used to validate these designs have to constantly improve. Since most of the design activity has moved to the register transfer level (RTL), test …

ATPG and DFT Algorithms for Delay Fault Testing
… and increasing clock rate on chips, delay testing is becoming a necessity in industry to maintain test quality for speed-related failures. The purpose of delay testing is to verify that the circuit operates correctly at the rated speed. However, functional tests for delay defects are …

Automatic Generation of Test Cases for Agile using Natural Language Processing
Test case design and generation is a tedious manual process that requires 40-70% of the software test life cycle. The test cases written manually by inexperienced testers may not offer a complete coverage of the requirements. Frequent changes in requirements reduce the reusability of the manually …

Machine Learning Algorithms for Improved Glaucoma Diagnosis
… Highly specific and sensitive diagnostic tests able to detect the clinically significant glaucomatous changes in the structure of the nerve fiber layer and visual field are therefore required for the early detection and management of this disease. This thesis treats the application of …

Effect of assessing glaucomatous optic disc changes using automated alternation flicker comparisons of serial optic disc stereophotographs
… in detecting progression of structural and functional glaucomatous damage. METHODS: A total of 83 eyes were selected randomly from patient records at authors’ institution. Serial sets of stereoscopic disc photography, SAP, and Stratus OCT were obtained with at least 1 year interval. …

Task oriented training and evaluation at home (TOTE Home)
… question of recovery (Duncan et al., 1999), Functional Test for the Hemiparetic Upper Extremity (Wilson, Baker, & Craddock, 1984), and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (Law et al., 2005) were evaluated on data collected at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up time periods …

High Quality Test Generation at the Register Transfer Level
… size has also lead to significant growth in testing effort required to verify the design. In order to cope with the required effort, the testing problem must be approached from several different design levels. In particular, exploiting the Register Transfer Level for test generation allows …

NOVEL NANOFIBER-BASED GRAFT FOR HEART VALVE REPLACEMENT
Creating a functional heart valve graft that lasts a lifetime is one of the main targets of cardiovascular tissue engineering. While processed conventional collagen-based heart valves have been used for many years, they eventually fail because of inadequate cell infiltration and insufficient …

Development and Characterization of Monoclonal Antisperm Antibodies: Potential for Contraception
… the second technique employed homogenized human testis for antigen extraction. Using these immunogens, sperm membrane-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were developed. When these antisperm MAbs were subjected to evaluation against an extensive panel of human tissues, no cross-reactivity to …
