High performance testing on SIMD machines

Abstract

The authors describe how software testing using mutation analysis can be performed efficiently on an SIMD machine. They develop a technique that permits unified scheduling of multiple mutant programs on a very large SIMD machine. They believe that supercomputers with novel architectures can be used to enhance software productivity by using techniques like the one proposed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
