Automatic Test, Configuration, and Repair of Cellular Arrays

Abstract

A cellular array is an iterative array of identical information processing machines, cells. The arrays discussed are rectangular arrays or programmable logic, in which information stored in a working cell tells how to behave. Properly programmed cells carry test signals between a tested cell and a testing computer directly connected to only a few cells. The computer may discover the faulty cells in an array; and repair the array by loading the array's good cells to embed a desired machine.
