Abstract

Programmable masks at ascending levels of processing machine functionality support the programmed injection of errors in response to machine events and machine states and in synchronism with machine operation. Provision is made for varying characteristics of injected errors through a programmable error mask and through generation of an injected error wave form having variable temporal and duration characteristics.
