The Hope and Atlanta are two open source ATPG programs.
In my study,I need to use the two programs,but I don't know where I can
get the two programs,so I come here for help.
If you know where I can get the two programs ,it's appreciate for you
to tell me the place where I can get the codes by the email.
If you have anyone of the two programs, it's appreciate for you to send
it to my email.

My gmail is yyq787@xxxxxxxxxx

Thanks very much.


From your IP address, you appear to be from China. Welcome to
sci.electronics.design.

(And, guys, let's please be a little more considerate with people from
outside North America and Europe. Not everyone in Asia has the luxury
of being able to use a computer every day. I speak from experience.)

Here's what I found on Atlanta, from Google (www.google.com) using the
words "atlanta source code atpg" (but without the quotes)

37: Test Generation and Fault Simulation Software

(Contributed by Dr. Dong Ha of Virginia Tech)

Two automatic test pattern generators (ATPGs) and a fault simula- tor
for combinational circuits were developed at Virginia Tech, and the
source codes of the tools are now ready for public release.
ATLANTA is an ATPG for stuck-at faults. It is based on the FAN
algorithm
and a parallel-pattern, single-fault propaga- tion technique. It
consists of optional sessions using random pattern testing,
deterministic
test pattern generation and test compaction. SOPRANO is an ATPG
for
stuck-open faults. The algo- rithm of SOPRANO is similar to ATLANTA
except two consecutive patterns are applied to detect a
stuck-open
fault. FSIM is a parallel-pattern, single-fault simulator. All
the
tools are written in C. The source codes are fully commented, and
README files contain user's manuals. Technical papers about the
tools
were presented at DAC-90 and ITC-91. All three tools are free to
univer-
sities. Companies are requested to make a contribution of $5000
but
will have free technical assistance. For detailed in- formation,
con-
tact:

I couldn't find a whole lot on "Hope". Then again, I only searched for
about 15 seconds. :)

So it looks like Atlanta's not quite open-source, but should be
available at your university. Contact Dr. Ha for more information...

Good luck!
