Evaluating system dependability in a co-design framework

The widespread adoption of embedded microprocessor-based systems for safety critical applications mandates the use of co-design tools able to evaluate system dependability at every step of the design cycle. In this paper, we describe how fault injection techniques have been integrated in an existing...

Description
Summary:The widespread adoption of embedded microprocessor-based systems for safety critical applications mandates the use of co-design tools able to evaluate system dependability at every step of the design cycle. In this paper, we describe how fault injection techniques have been integrated in an existing co-design tool and which advantages come from the availability of such an enhanced tool. The effectiveness of the proposed tool is assessed on a simple case study.
