Abstract

As VLSI geometry continues to shrink and the level of integration increases, it is expected that the probability of faults, particularly transient faults, will increase in future microprocessors. So far, fault tolerance has chiefly been considered for special purpose or safety critical systems, but future technology will likely require integrating fault tolerance techniques into commercial systems. Such systems require low cost solutions that are transparent to the system operation and do not degrade overall performance. This paper introduces a new superscalar architecture, termed as 03RS that aims to incorporate such simple fault tolerance mechanisms as part of the basic architecture.
