—Soft error rates are an increasing problem in modern VLSI circuits. Commonly used error correcting codes reduce soft error rates in large memories and second level caches but ar...
Device scaling trends dramatically increase the susceptibility of microprocessors to soft errors. Further, mounting demand for embedded microprocessors in a wide array of safety c...

—With the advancement of CMOS manufacturing process to nano-scale, future shipped microprocessors will be increasingly vulnerable to intermittent faults. Quantitatively character...
Conventional error correcting code (ECC) schemes used in memories and caches cannot correct double bit errors caused by a single event upset (SEU). As memory density increases, mu...
Decreasing feature sizes have led to an increased vulnerability of random logic to soft errors. A particle strike may cause a glitch or single event transient (SET) at the output ...
