Abstract :
Problems of fault detection and fault tolerance for an innovative special associative memory architecture, the associative RAM (ARAM), are considered. Additional components to solve these problems are presented. The resulting reliability improvement of the ARAM is discussed. The extended architecture has been realized as a prototype by a VLSI implementation
