Low-Overhead Fault-Tolerant Quantum Memory (IBM)
By Technical Paper Link - 07 Apr, 2024 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "High-threshold and low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum memory" was published by researchers at IBM Quantum. Abstract "The accumulation of physical errors prevents the execution of large-scale algorithms in current quantum computers. Quantum error correction promises a solution by encoding k logical qubits onto a larger number n of physical qubits, such t... » read more

TCAD-Based Radiation Modeling Technique For Reliable Aerospace Chips
By Ian Land - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

By Ian Land and Ricardo Borges We demand a lot from the electronic components that bring our devices and systems to life. This is particularly true when it comes to semiconductors for space applications. From satellites to spacecraft, aerospace and defense equipment must tolerate the most extreme of operating conditions in order to perform their jobs safely and reliably. How do you ensure... » read more

A Novel ISO 26262-Compliant Test Bench to Assess the Diagnostic Coverage of Software Hardening Techniques against Digital Components Random Hardware Failures
By Technical Paper Link - 18 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "This paper describes a novel approach to assess detection mechanisms and their diagnostic coverage, implemented using embedded software, designed to identify random hardware failures affecting digital components. In the literature, many proposals adopting fault injection methods are available, with most of them focusing on transient faults and not considering the functional safety st... » read more

When Correct Is Not Enough: Formal Verification of Fault-Tolerant Hardware
By OneSpin Solutions - 27 Mar, 2019 - Comments: 0

Once upon a time, hardware functional verification was all about ensuring that a circuit would perform its specified functions under all legal input stimuli. Today, though, gaining confidence that a hardware design is correct is often not enough. Several industries, including automotive, medical, and aerospace, rely on safety-critical hardware to keep people safe. Other systems, for example, in... » read more

Toward Cross-Layer Resilience
By Ed Sperling - 28 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 0

Connected devices are everywhere, and the numbers are growing by orders of magnitude. There are 7 billion people on the planet, but there are expected to be many more billions of connected devices. Each person may have dozens of devices with multiple chips, and those will be connected through infrastructures filled with thousands of additional chips. The problem is that as everything gets c... » read more

Verification Of Functional Safety
By Brian Bailey - 25 Jan, 2018 - Comments: 4

Functional safety is becoming a key part of chip design, and an increasingly problematic one for many engineering teams. Functional safety for electrical and electronic systems is nothing new. It has been an important element of the military, aerospace and medical industries for many years. But the growing importance of functional safety within the automobile industry presents a number o... » read more
