As silicon technologies move into the nanometer regime, transistor reliability is expected to wane as devices become subject to extreme process variation, particle-induced transie...

Time redundancy (rollback-recovery) and hardware redundancy are commonly used in real-time systems to achieve fault tolerance. From an energy consumption point of view, time redun...
Scaling feature size improves processor performance but increases each device’s susceptibility to defects (i.e., hard errors). As a result, fabrication technology must improve s...
Software-based self-test (SBST) is emerging as a promising technology for enabling at-speed testing of high-speed embedded processors testing in an SoC system. For SBST, test rout...
The general problem of verifying coherence for shared-memory multiprocessor executions is NP-Complete. Verifying memory consistency models is therefore NP-Hard, because memory con...
