Abstract :
In the paper, we exploit the inherent status information of Network on Chip (NoC) routers to manage transient errors in the flit type. The proposed solution significantly reduces extra 2× cost of the flit type field over Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR). Its analytical model is given to predict the efficiency. The simulation results show its throughput recovery rate is up to 61.21% over no protection case, while the throughput recovery rate per area achieves 2.13× over TMR.
