Abstract :
Silicon technology trends of 65nm technology and architectural trends of the next generation of processors, chip-sets and systems are driving new design paradigms and shifts in the approaches towards robust system design. This paper addresses the convergence of these trends in designing the next generation of highly reliable systems at Sun Microsystems.
