April 2012 - The quarterly HiPEAC info places DeSyRe in the spotlight with the article "DeSyRe for extremely reliable ultra low-power systems".
For pacemakers and other implantable medical devices three are the key factors: extreme reliability, small size, and long longevity. In the EU project DeSyRe, researchers tackle these issues with a new approach: building a reliable system on unreliable components.
To counter the increasing fault-rates expected in the next technology generations, DeSyRe develops new design techniques for future Systems-on-Chips to improve reliability while at the same time reducing power and performance overheads associated with fault-tolerance.
