  • Abstract
    A novel approach to von Neumann multiplexing is considered, in which NAND gates are replaced by Muller C-elements. The new method is developed as an application of maximum a-posteriori (MAP) estimation, and is shown to be superior to NAND multiplexing in systems where transient upsets are the dominant fault species.
