Our new out-of-order processor simulator, FastSim, uses two innovations to speed up simulation 8–15 times (vs. Wisconsin SimpleScalar) with no loss in simulation accuracy. First...
—Soft errors (or Transient faults) are temporary faults that arise in a circuit due to a variety of internal noise and external sources such as cosmic particle hits. Though soft ...
