Abstract

See full text

A set of indexes associated with each state of the finite state machine provides an address locator to a location in memory of a microprocessor where sets of logical vectors are stored. A count stored in a group of logical vectors identifies the number of stored logical vectors and hence, permits memory allocation to vary depending upon the number of logical conditions to be applied for a given test. A predetermined null value entered in an index is interpreted by the finite state machine as requiring no further processing and having no corresponding memory allocated for logical vectors.
