Thoughts from the MSC quarterly teleconference; test suite



P-1788 (and Bob Davis FYI),

Nathalie and I just attended the IEEE Microprocessor
Standardization Committee quarterly teleconference, and
submitted our report.  (Juergen:  What do you think about
posting our quarterly reports in our web area?)

One thing that Bob Davis brought up is the advisability of
having a validation test suite, that is, a test set designed
to certify whether or not a particular system conforms to
the 1788 standard.  I'm not sure our document is sufficiently
developed yet to actually work on or solicit such a test
suite, but it's definitely something we should be thinking
about.

Best regards,

Baker
