Abstract

Safety-critical embedded systems must maintain their functionality even in the presence of single permanent hardware failure. Naive redundancy of hardware is often unaffordable and impractical, therefore alternative strategies must be explored for minimal cost fault-tolerance. The objective of this paper is to propose a methodology to evaluate formally safety strategies using Satisfiability Modulo Theory solvers. Practically, the approach consists in providing a bounded model checking demonstration applied to the formal model of hardware. We show the capabilities of the approach on an efficient hardware accelerator designed to perform parallel computations of matrix multiplications and convolutions.
