In automotive mixed-signal SoCs, the analogue/mixed-signal front-ends are of particular interest with regard to dependability. Because of the many electrical disturbances at the front-end, often (active) filters are being used. Due to the harsh environments, in some cases, degradation of these filters may be encountered during lifetime and hence false sensor information could be provided with potential...
Nowadays highly dependable electronic devices are demanded by many safety-critical applications. Dependability attributes such as reliability and availability/maintainability of a many-processor system-on-chip (MPSoC) should already be examined at the design phase. Design for dependability approaches such as using available fault-free processor-cores and introducing a dependability manager infrastructural...
This paper presents a technique for reducing CPU time to perform simulation-based fault-injection experiments in complex SoCs. This technique is fully compatible with commercial HDL simulators with no requirement to develop dedicated compilers. This approach can be easily applied to complex SoC models, as it is not required to modify the top-level modules of design, moreover, it can inject a wide...
A new direction in short-range wireless applications has appeared in the form of high-speed data communication devices for distances of a few meters. Behind these embedded applications, a complex Hardware/Software architecture is built. Dependability is one of the major challenges in these systems. Obviously in such systems, the attribute reliability has to be investigated for various components and...
Nowadays, safety-critical systems in for instance the automotive industry routinely consist of complex Systems-on-Chip in increasingly advanced processes. The decreased reliability for advanced processes, along with the harsh environmental conditions in cars, causes serious concerns for the dependability of those SoCs. For this reason, some digital IP vendors for those systems are already starting...
Heterogeneous SoC devices, including sensors, analogue and mixed-signal front-end circuits and the availability of massive digital processing capability, are being increasingly used in safety-critical applications like in the automotive, medical, and the security arena. Already a significant amount of attention has been paid in literature with respect to the dependability of the digital parts in heterogeneous...
Recent advances in the semiconductor industry enable the integration of many processing units on a single die and new processors are often included into large many-core SoCs. The dependability of such a many-core processor is essential for many mission-critical applications. Ideas such as the Know-Good-Tile concept [1] or majority-voting among tiles [2] have been proposed to explore the possibility...
