Active Calls for Participation

IEEE P1450.4™, Standard Test Interface Language (STIL)—Extensions for Test Flow Specification Study Group: IEEE Std 1450.4, Standard Test Interface Language for Test Flow Specification

IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) extends an invitation for your participation in the Working Group for P1450.4™, Standard Test Interface Language (STIL)—Extensions for Test Flow Specification

WHY GET INVOLVED?

Scope of proposed standard: This standard specifies extensions to IEEE Std 1450 (Standard Test Interface Language; STIL.0) that define the description of certain test flow and binning components of an Integrated Circuit (IC) test program in a test-hardware-independent manner. The flow and binning constructs in this standard allow for developing a test program description in a common language. This common description (STIL.4) can either be used as input to a test program generator that translates the description into the native language of specific IC Automated Test Equipment (ATE) systems or be run directly on IC ATE systems.

The extensions provide language constructs and semantics necessary to describe both the test program flow and the sequencing data needed to compose a test program to run on an ATE platform. The language constructs defined include structures for specifying the following:

• Order of execution of test program components,

• Hierarchical test flow structures to facilitate automated modification or maintenance,

• Common interfaces between the test flow environment and test program components,

• Test flow variables to facilitate concurrent and serial test flow interactions, and

• Binning or categorization of tested ICs.

The following aspects integral to test execution are specifically not addressed by this standard:

• The standardization of the interface between the prober or handler and tester is beyond the scope of this standard.

• Input/output operations and exception handling.

• The definition of test methods is beyond the scope of this standard.

Purpose: This standard overcomes the lack of test flow extensions in IEEE Std 1450 (Standard Test Interface Language; STIL)

IEEE P2675.2™, Standard for Systems Observability across DevOps

IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) extends an invitation for your participation in the IEEE P2675.2™, Standard for Systems Observability across DevOps.

Why Get Involved

This standard specifies the requirements for development, operations, management, and governance for observability during the entire DevOps process for software systems. It enables key stakeholders to conduct interrogation, inquiry, diagnosis, and improvement of systems. The activities and functions to enable observability are integrated to provide a comprehensive and holistic view of a systems of systems lifecycle.

IEEE P2675.1™, Standard for System Reliability Engineering–Building Automation to Support Continuous Operations

IEEE Standards Association (IEEE SA) extends an invitation for your participation in the IEEE P2675.1™, Standard for System Reliability Engineering–Building Automation to Support Continuous Operations.

Why Get Involved

This standard specifies the requirements for development, operations, management, and governance for system reliability engineering (SRE) during the entire DevOps process for software systems. This standard enables key stakeholders to identify issues and events that could potentially impact end users by proactively automating tasks often performed by the operations teams to help ensure that systems are reliable and continuously meeting end user expectations. The activities and functions to enable SRE are integrated to provide a comprehensive and holistic view of a systems of systems lifecycle.
