Abstract :
Algorithm-based fault tolerance is a scheme of low-cost error protection in real-time digital signal processing environments and other computation-intensive tasks. In this paper, a new method for encoding data is proposed and, furthermore, two kinds of error-correcting codes over Z2(m), which can be used with fixed-point arithmetic in practical algorithm-based fault tolerant systems, are introduced
