| Abstract | Soft errors and errors caused by intermittent faults are a major concern for modern processors. In this paper we provide a drastically different approach for fault tolerant scheduling (FTS) of tasks in such processors. Traditionally in FTS, error detection is performed implicitly and concurrently with task execution, and associated overheads are incurred as increases in software run-time or hardware area. However, such embedded error detection (EED) techniques, e.g., watchdog processor assisted control flow checking, only provide approximately 70% error coverage [1, 2]. We propose the idea of utilizing straightforward explicit output comparison (EOC) which provides nearly 100% error coverage. We construct a framework for utilizing EOC in FTS, identify new challenges and tradeoffs, and develop a new off-line scheduling algorithm for EOC. We show that our EOC based approach provides higher error coverage and an average performance improvement of nearly 10% over EED-based FTS approaches, without increasing resource requirements. In our ongoing research we are identifying a richer set of ways of applying EOC, by itself and in conjunction with EED, to obtain further improvements. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
