Finite failure NHPP models proposed in the literature exhibit either constant, monotonic increasing or monotonic decreasing failure occurrence rates per fault, and are inadequate ...
—Robust circuit design has become a major concern for nanoscale technologies. As a consequence, for design validation, not only the functionality of a circuit has to be considere...

i To boost logic density and reduce per unit power consumption SRAM-based FPGAs manufacturers adopted nanometric technologies. However, this technology is highly vulnerable to radi...
Software Fault Tree Analysis (SFTA) provides a structured way to reason about the safety or reliability of a software system. As such, SFTA is widely used in missioncritical appli...
For garbage-collected applications, dynamically-allocated objects are contained in a heap. Programmer productivity improves significantly if there is a garbage collector to autom...
