ON THE CONNECTION ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM OF DIAGNOSABLE SYSTEMS,

Abstract

The paper treats the problem of automatic fault diagnosis for systems with multiple faults. The system is decomposed into a number of units u sub 1, u sub 2..., sub n, where a unit is a well identifiable portion of the system which cannot be further decomposed for the purpose of diagnosis. By means of a given arrangement of testing links (connection assignment) each unit of the system tests a subset of units, and a proper diagnosis can be arrived at for any diagnosable fault pattern. Methods for optimal assignments are given for instantaneous and sequential diagnosis procedures. (Author)
