| Research Abstract |
A concept of the error secure and the error propagating interfaces of the subsystems in a digital system is introduced, and shown to be useful for practical design and verification for a strongly fault-secure system which is known to achieve the TSC goal. A sufficient condition is shown for subsystem interfaces to meet in order for it to be possible to construct a strongly fault-secure system with no checkers used to monitor the embedded interfaces. Based on the error secure/propagating concept, a design is presented for the strongly fault secure microprocessor which implements the instruction set of Intel's i8080 8-bit microprocessor. In the design, a complete set of building blocks is defined and all the partial interfaces are verified for the error secure/propagating property. Only four checkers are used at the embedded interfaces in the resulting strongly fault-secure processor.
