A Mechanism for Online Diagnosis of Hard Faults in Microprocessors
We develop a microprocessor design that tolerates hard faults, including fabrication defects and in-field faults, by leveraging existing microprocessor redundancy. To do this, we...

Automatic Instruction-Level Software-Only Recovery
As chip densities and clock rates increase, processors are becoming more susceptible to transient faults that can affect program correctness. Computer architects have typically ad...

Transient-Fault Recovery Using Simultaneous Multithreading
We propose a scheme for transient-fault recovery called Simultaneously and Redundantly Threaded processors with Recovery (SRTR) that enhances a previously proposed scheme for tran...

Inherent Time Redundancy (ITR): Using Program Repetition for Low-Overhead Fault Tolerance
A new approach is proposed that exploits repetition inherent in programs to provide low-overhead transient fault protection in a processor. Programs repeatedly execute the same in...
