Rescue: A Microarchitecture for Testability and Defect Tolerance
Scaling feature size improves processor performance but increases each device’s susceptibility to defects (i.e., hard errors). As a result, fabrication technology must improve s...

High performance computing on fault-prone nanotechnologies: novel microarchitecture techniques exploiting reliability-delay trad
Device and interconnect fabrics at the nanoscale will have a density of defects and susceptibility to transient faults far exceeding those of current silicon technologies. In this...

Inherent Time Redundancy (ITR): Using Program Repetition for Low-Overhead Fault Tolerance
A new approach is proposed that exploits repetition inherent in programs to provide low-overhead transient fault protection in a processor. Programs repeatedly execute the same in...

SEVA: A Soft-Error- and Variation-Aware Cache Architecture
As SRAM devices are scaled down, the number of variation-induced defective memory cells increases rapidly. Combination of ECC, particularly SECDED, with a redundancy technique can...
