Strongly code disjoint checkers

摘要

Strongly code-disjoint (SCD) checkers are defined and shown to include totally self-checking (TSC) code-disjoint checkers. This type of checker is the natural companion of strongly fault-secure (SFS) networks. SCD checkers are the largest class of checkers with which a combinational system may achieve the TSC goal. Some examples are given to illustrate the design of SCD checkers.
