Abstract(in English) In order to maintain the high reliability of a computer system, it is necessary to detect the failure leading to an obstacle. In general, failure is detected by using time redundancy or spatial redundancy. However, in order to realize these redundancies, additional hardware and execution time increase. In this paper, the data-path partitioning which realizes spatial redundancy is proposed without making a large change of hardware. Moreover, the system which reduces an execution time overhead is proposed in consideration of the minimum bit width which is needed at the time of operation. In our evaluation, execution time became an average of 1.62 times (redundancy: two), and an average of 3.09 times (redundancy: four). Therefore, this technique is very effective.
