Abstract
This paper deals with a software modification strategy allowing on-line detection of transient errors. Being based on a set of rules for introducing redundancy in the high-level code, the method can be completely automated, and is therefore particularly suited for low-cost safety-critical microprocessor-based applications. Experimental results are presented and discussed, demonstrating the effectiveness of the approach in terms of fault detection capabilities
