Abstract :
In this paper we present a concurrent error detection (CED) technique that can be applied to behavioral RTL models of data dominated systems. The technique obtains CED through duplication of operations with shifted operands. Duplication is performed according to transformation rules that can automatically be applied to a behavioral model. Preliminary experimental results show the viability of the proposed technique.
