Lazy Error Detection for Microprocessor Functional Units
We propose and evaluate the use of lazy error detection for a superscalar, out-of-order microprocessor’s functional units. The key insight is that error detection is off the cri...

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...
