| Research Abstract |
This project developed a dependable system based on mixed-grained reconfigurable architecture, which can implement a dependable backup circuit of target applications dynamically. We also proposed a method for mitigating NBTI-induced performance degradation that exploits the recovery property by shifting random input through scan paths during standby time. In addition to this, we proposed a path delay testing method for predicting a timing error on a coarse-grained reconfigurable architecture. The proposed method can effectively identify the faulty component, which will cause a timing error, and a fault-free component for substitution.
