Incremental checkpointing, which is intended to minimize checkpointing overhead, saves only the modified pages of a process. This means that in incremental checkpointing, the time...
We develop a novel on-line built-in self-test (BIST) technique for testing FPGAs that has a very high diagnosability even in presence of clustered faults, a fault pattern for whic...
FPGA-based designs are more susceptible to single-event upsets (SEUs) compared to ASIC designs. Soft error rate (SER) estimation is a crucial step in the design of soft error tole...
In the next five years, the number of processors in high-end systems for scientific computing is expected to rise to tens and even hundreds of thousands. For example, the IBM Blu...
Critical systems like pace-makers, defibrillators, wearable computers and other electronic gadgets have to be designed not only for reliability but also for ultra-low power consu...
