DF-4,5 - resource allocation

Reviewed changes Tony made to clause 9 per decisions from last meeting. Changes agreed to. Additionally, Dan is to provide an updated example to replace section 9.3 and also a new example to add to annex F that shows combining the use of Inherit in a wft and the use of <resource_id> labels. Issue DF-4 and DF-5  are to be closed.

JT-5 - PatternCharacteristics

• The "Match" statement should be removed from the "InstructionCharacteristics" block since it is redundat with the "MatchLoop" keyword in the AppliesTo statement.
• Need new syntax to define the characteristics for a match loop. Should be able to specify the time or number of vectors before an output compare can be done. Tony to propose syntax.
• The MultipleSites and Multiple Ports statements should be removed to a new SystemCharacteristics block at the top (TRC) level.

TT-3 - TRC-Err definitions

The new scheme for numbering TRC errors was reviewed. They are now defined sequentially in Annex G. Once we agree to an initial set, the numbers will be frozen and any new error checks will be assigned to the end of the list.

JD-1 - Economics

This clause is to be removed from the document and the issue closed.

FM-2 - Site and Port

These statements to be moved into a new TRC->System block and this issue closed.

TT-1 - TRC file structure requirements

• A new column is to be added to clause 7 indicating the applicable syntax when loading a STIL file to an ATE system.
• Add to clause 7 an explanation of usage of Environment and TRC blocks for classes of ATE systems.
• Specify that the Environment->TRC should go at the beginning of a STIL file (right after Signals, Groups, Specs, and Variables) and that ordering of blocks within a TRC block is not required.

TT2, TT7 - Encryption

These two issues should be combined.

TT-3 - TRC Errors

This issue should be closed.

TT-5 - MaxScanChainLength

This issue should be closed.

WG-1 - Block Ordering

This issue should be combined with TT-1 and explained in clause 7.
