ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a method for inserting errors into data to facilitate validation of an error detection algorithm. The method comprises: receiving a data corruption command for a plurality of bits; determining, from the data corruption command, a plurality of bit fields within the plurality of bits for data corruption; determining a minimum and maximum number of errors for each of the plurality of bit fields; determining a total number of errors to be inserted; inserting the minimum number of errors into each of the plurality of bit fields at random locations; and randomly inserting additional errors into the plurality of bit fields subject to the maximum number of errors until the total number of errors are inserted.
