Abstract(in English) As the device size decreases, the reliability degradation due to soft-errors is becoming one of the serious issues in VLSIs. Concerning the tolerability against multiple component error caused by a single soft-error in our design, we use the combination of comparison-retry mechanism and vote mechanism to realize on-line error correction. Under the assumption that a single soft-error does not affect beyond a certain spatial range, we consider the adjacency constraint between components in datapath. By introducing the adjacency constraint, the chance of speculative resource sharing can be increased, 3 triplicated computation algorithms can be executed in parallel, and as a result, total schedule length can be improved. The experimental result revealed that our approach can reduce the latency in many applications compared with conventional methods.
