Microprocessor soft error rate prediction based on cache memory analysis

SEUs Mitigation on Program Counter of the LEON3 Soft Processor

“…In [8], a new methodology is proposed to evaluate the real cache sensitivity for a given application, and to calculate a more accurate SER. The methodology, based on monitoring the memory accesses, is applied to the LEON3 with several benchmarks showing that their proposed tool predicted all real errors with little over-estimation.…”
