This paper discusses the problems of pin-level fault injection for dependability validation and presents the architecture of a pin-level fault injector called RIFLE. This system ca...
We report the results of a survey about the software faults encountered during the testing phases in evolving a large real-time system. The survey was done in two parts: the rst pa...
common use is the distinction into two (abstract) fault models: A new fault modelling scheme for integrated analogue general the "Single Hard Fault Model (SHFM)" and the ...
A deductive technique is presented that uses voltage testing for the diagnosis of single bridging faults between two gate input or output lines and is applicable to combinational ...
We present a fast, dynamic fault coverage estimation technique for sequential circuits that achieves high degrees of accuracy by signi cantly reducing the number of injected fault...
Effective discrimination between transient and permanent faults is a very important practical problem in (dependable) system design. A count-andthreshold mechanism named -count, d...

Since Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are reprogrammable, faults in them can be easily toleruted once fault sites are located. Previous researches on diagnosis of FPGAs mai...
This paper presents a new fault-tolerance technique for cache memories. Current fault-tolerance techniques for caches are limited either by the number of faults that can be tolera...
Validating distributed systems is particularly difficult, since failures may occur due to a correlated occurrence of faults in different parts of the system. This paper describes ...

Assessing the reliability of a software system has always been an elusive target. A program may work very well for a number of years and this same program may suddenly become quit...
