ACE analysis is a technique to provide an early reliability estimate for microprocessors. ACE analysis couples data from performance models with low level design details to identi...
Shrinking time-to-market and high demand for productivity has driven traditional hardware designers to use design methodologies that start from high-level languages. However, meet...
Memory elements are the most vulnerable system component to soft errors. Since memory elements in cache arrays consume a large fraction of the die in modern microprocessors, the p...
