Abstract :
A concurrent error detection and correction scheme using linear arithmetic code (LAC) is proposed for matrix operations on a hypercube multiprocessor system. The method uses the concept of error patterns to derive a set of linear check codes suitable for matrix operations. It can detect and correct errors caused by single communication line or single processor fault
