Detouring: Translating software to circumvent hard faults in simple cores
CMOS technology trends are leading to an increasing incidence of hard (permanent) faults in processors. These faults may be introduced at fabrication or occur in the field. Wherea...

A study of cognitive resilience in a JPEG compressor
Many classes of applications are inherently tolerant to errors. One such class are applications designed for a human end user, where the capabilities of the human cognitive system...

Byzantine replication under attack
Existing Byzantine-resilient replication protocols satisfy two standard correctness criteria, safety and liveness, in the presence of Byzantine faults. In practice, however, fault...

Experiences with formal specification of fault-tolerant file systems
Fault-tolerant, replicated file systems are a crucial component of today's data centers. Despite their huge complexity, these systems are typically specified only in brief pr...

A characterization of instruction-level error derating and its implications for error detection
In this work, we characterize a significant source of software derating that we call instruction-level derating. Instruction-level derating encompasses the mechanisms by which co...
