This paper presents the effectiveness of an interactive support facility to tune processor allocation of data-driven realtime programs on CUE (Coordinating Users’ requirements an...
Register file (RF) is extremely vulnerable to soft errors, and traditional redundancy based schemes to protect the RF are prohibitive not only because RF is often in the timing c...
