We develop a microprocessor design that tolerates hard faults, including fabrication defects and in-field faults, by leveraging existing microprocessor redundancy. To do this, we...
—Fault tolerance (FT) has become a major concern in computing systems. Instruction duplication has been proposed to verify application execution at run time. Two techniques, inst...
Commercial designs are integrating from 10 to 100 embedded functional and storage blocks in a single system on chip (SoC) currently, and the number is likely to increase significa...
This paper presents a novel approach to interconnect fault location for FPGAs during power-on sequence. The method is based on a concept known as fault grading which utilizes defec...

As device scales shrink, higher transistor counts are available while soft-errors, even in logic, become a major concern. A new class of architectures, such as Merrimac and the IB...
