The increasing transient fault rate will necessitate onchip fault tolerance techniques in future processors. The speed gap between the processor and the memory is also increasing,...
Transient faults are emerging as a critical concern in the reliability of general-purpose microprocessors. As architectural trends point towards multi-threaded multi-core designs,...

This paper presents an approach for integrating fault-tolerance techniques into microprocessors by utilizing instruction redundancy as well as time redundancy. Smaller and smaller...
In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant mechanism for microprocessors, which detects transient faults and recovers from them. There are two driving force to investigate fault-t...
Future microprocessors will be highly susceptible to transient errors as the sizes of transistors decrease due to CMOS scaling. Prior techniques advocated full scale structural or...
