In-System Testing of Configurable Logic Blocks in Xilinx 7-Series FPGAs
… Scrubbing and related techniques cannot detect permanent faults within the FPGA fabric, such as short circuits and open circuits in FPGA transistors that arise from electromigration effects. Several Built-In Self-Test (BIST) techniques have been proposed in the past to detect and isolate such …

Cost-effective Designs for Supporting Correct Execution and Scalable Performance in Many-core Processors
… performance on three coordinates: 1) tolerating permanent faults, 2) facilitating static and dynamic verification through precise specifications, and 3) designing scalable coherence protocols.</p> <p>First, we propose CCA, a new design paradigm for increasing the processor's lifetime performance …

The design of periodically self restoring redundant systems
… be tolerant of both transient (intermittent) and permanent hardware faults. Further, the reliability of such designs is not compromised by fault latency. The periodically self restoring redundant (PSRR) systems presented in this dissertation employ, in general, N computing units (CU's) operating …

Optimization and Testing of Nmos Arithmetic Structures (Vlsi, Mos)
… the new compressor family both for the static (permanent) faults and dynamic (environmentally caused) faults.

A data analytic approach to automatic fault diagnosis and prognosis for distribution automation
… to rapidly reconnect customers following network faults. Recent developments in DA equipment have enabled the logging of load and fault event data, referred to as pick-up activity. This pick-up activity provides a picture of the underlying circuit activity occurring between successive DA …

Unreliable and resource-constrained decoding
… are noiseless and operate without transient or permanent faults. Decoders are also traditionally assumed to be unconstrained in physical resources like material, memory, and energy. This thesis studies how constraining reliability and resources in the decoder limits the performance of …

Methodologies and tools for yield improvement of field-programmable logic architectures.
… components to the FPGA architecture to tolerate permanent faults. Another technique speeds up a synthesis technique used in a rewiring engine to allow for replacement or enforcement of faulty wires in a circuit. The third technique uses a search space pruning technique to speedup the optimization …
