Abstract
This paper focuses on variability and reliability issues for FPGAs. The paper shows how these issues can be effectively addressed using one of the most powerful features of FPGAs: their ability and flexibility to be reconfigured. The paper also presents techniques for characterizing variability and degradation in these systems.
