Partitioning Large Problems

  • Chapter
System Test and Diagnosis

Abstract

An increasing number of full system testability analyses are being handled by the modeling approach discussed in this book. Although top-level design review analyses have not presented problems, there is a concern that detailed models of large systems may exceed computer and computational capabilities of the most sophisticated modeling approach. It is reasonable to assume that the communications portion of Space Station Freedom or the avionics on the F-22 may exceed from 10,000 to 15,000 elements in the information flow model. We have successfully created and run static analyses on models up to 8,000 elements on an 80486 50 MHz system with 20 MBytes of memory, but we have not attempted online diagnosis at this level.
