Eliminating microarchitectural dependency from Architectural Vulnerability
The Architectural Vulnerability Factor (AVF) of a hardware structure is the probability that a fault in the structure will affect the output of a program. AVF captures both microa...

Dynamic prediction of architectural vulnerability from microarchitectural state
Transient faults due to particle strikes are a key challenge in microprocessor design. Driven by exponentially increasing transistor counts, per-chip faults are a growing burden. ...
