DOI: 10.1109/tns.2017.2705150
Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the impact of register file errors in modern embedded microprocessors reliability through fault-injection and heavy-ion experiments. Additionally, we evaluate how different levels of compiler optimization modify the usage and failure… read more here.
