We propose a fault-tolerant approach to reliable microprocessor design. Our approach,
based on the use of an online checker component in the processor pipeline, provides …

This paper speculates that technology trends pose new challenges for fault tolerance in
microprocessors. Specifically, severely reduced design tolerances implied by gigaherz clock …

Publisher Summary The chapter provides an overview of fault-tolerant computing design,
including both hardware and software techniques. The emphasis is directed toward practical …

After 30 years of study and practice in fault tolerance, high-confidence computing remains a
costly privilege of several critical applications. It is time to explore ways to deliver high …

The rapid pace of advancement of microprocessor technology has shown no sign of
diminishing, and this pace is expected to continue in the future. Recent trends in such areas …

A taxonomy of fault tolerance in commercial computers is set forth. It is organized around
three orthogonal axes: the sources of errors the computer tolerates, the computer's approach …

The paper reviews the methods by which reliable processing and control can be achieved
using fault-tolerant digital computers. The motivation for employing such systems is …

This article aims to present a survey of important software based (or software controlled)
fault tolerance literature over the period of 1966 to 2006. Nowadays, fault tolerance is a …

For many years, most computer architects have pursued one primary goal: performance.
Architects have translated the ever-increasing abundance of ever-faster transistors provided …
