Evaluating SEU and Crosstalk Effects in Network-on-Chip Routers

This work intends to evaluate the effect of a Single Event Upsets (SEUs) and crosstalk faults in a NoC router architecture by developing a fault injection mechanism, allowing an accurate analysis of the impact of SEU and crosstalk over the router service. Results show that such faults may affect the router behavior, causing loss of packets, errors in packet information or even compromising the router service, provoking permanent routing problems.
