Abstract :
Describes the ROAR (Reliability Obtained by Adaptive Reconfiguration) project. Adaptive computing system (ACS) environments provide opportunities for dependable computing solutions. We identify some of the issues in traditional dependable computing solutions. We show that adaptive and reconfigurable environments address these issues and also enable new innovative techniques that enhance the dependability of systems. Natural redundancy in applications and new synthesis algorithms are two other opportunities we use in enhancing the dependability
