Design and Analysis of Fault-Tolerant Processor Arrays for Numerical Applications

Abstract

dc:description

The availability of fast devices in low cost and high density technologies promises a major breakthrough in future supercomputer designs, especially in the design of highly concurrent processors. Locally interconnected processor arrays, such as systotic arrays, are well suited to efficiently implement a major class of numerical algorithms due to their massive parallelism and regular structure. However, the successful operation of a processor array depends very much on the correctness of all the processing elements in the array. Any single faulty processor may easily jeopardize the results of the whole system. This makes the fault tolerance a very important issue in the design of processor arrays, and is the subject of this thesis.
