PPSFP (Parallel-Pattern Single-Fault Propagation) style fault simulators and other utility functions for use in various projects. These fault simulators are meant to be correct (ensured by unit-tests) and reasonably fast.

Quick Start

This project has submodules. To ensure everything is up-to-date, run

git submodule update --init --recursive

after git clone, git pull or git checkout.

This project manages reproducible programming environments with:

uv for managing python environments.
nix for managing non-python tools and benchmark designs. Follow this guide or this guide to setup nix-eda binary cache to avoid re-building EDA-related tools.

Smoke-test: uv run pytest

For running Jupyter Notebooks in the reproducible programming environment, install a kernelspec with this command:

uv run ipython kernel install --user --env VIRTUAL_ENV $(pwd)/.venv --env PATH ${PATH} --name=uv-env

Run a Jupyter Lab server locally:

uv run jupyter lab

Choose uv-env as kernel in Jupyter Lab.

uv run main.py <circuit> runs a naive, baseline fault simulation.

nix develop makes quaigh available, another simulator/atpg written in rust.
