Detouring: Translating software to circumvent hard faults in simple cores
CMOS technology trends are leading to an increasing incidence of hard (permanent) faults in processors. These faults may be introduced at fabrication or occur in the field. Wherea...

Fault diagnosis of analog circuits based on machine learning
— We discuss a fault diagnosis scheme for analog integrated circuits. Our approach is based on an assemblage of learning machines that are trained beforehand to guide us through ...

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...

Low-cost run-time diagnosis of hard delay faults in the functional units of a microprocessor
This paper addresses the run-time diagnosis of delay faults in functional units of microprocessors. Despite the popularity of the stuck-at fault model, it is no longer the only re...
