Abstract

In this paper, we propose the use of the Static Single Assignment form, which was originally proposed for code optimization in compilation techniques, to transform software components into a data-flow representation. Thus, some hardware testability concepts can be used to analyze the testability of components that are described by C or Ada programs. Such a testability analysis helps designers during the specification phases of their components and testers during testing during the testing phases to evaluate and eventually to modify the design.
