Abstract:This paper discusses how compiler optimizations influence software reliability when the optimized application is compiled with a technique to enable the software itself to detect and correct radiation-induced control-flow errors. Supported by a comprehensive fault-injection campaign using an established benchmark suite in the embedded systems domain, we show that the compiler is a non-negligible source of noise when hardening the software against radiationinduced soft errors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
