Performance of Graceful Degradation for Cache Faults
In sub-90nm technologies, more frequent hard faults pose a serious burden on processor design and yield control. In addition to manufacturing-time chip repair schemes, microarchit...

Structural Test for Graceful Degradation of NoC Switches
Abstract—Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) are implicitly fault tolerant due to their inherent redundancy. They can overcome defective cores, links and switches. As a side effect, yield is...

A cache-defect-aware code placement algorithm for improving the performance of processors
— Yield improvement through exploiting fault-free sections of defective chips is a well-known technique [1][2]. The idea is to partition the circuitry of a chip in a way that fau...
