- Title
Survey of Software-Implemented Soft Error Protection.
- Authors

- Abstract
As soft errors are important design concerns in embedded systems, several schemes have been presented to protect embedded systems against them. Embedded systems can be protected by hardware redundancy; however, hardware-based protections cannot provide flexible protection due to hardware-only protection modifications. Further, they incur significant overheads in terms of area, performance, and power consumption. Therefore, hardware redundancy techniques are not appropriate for resource-constrained embedded systems. On the other hand, software-based protection techniques can be an attractive alternative to protect embedded systems, especially specific-purpose architectures. This manuscript categorizes and compares software-based redundancy techniques for general-purpose and specific-purpose processors, such as VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) and CGRA (Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architectures).
