  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a novel methodology for improving reliability of FPGAs without requiring special purpose hardware. In contrast to related approaches that are applied uniformly over the target architecture, the proposed one insert redundancy only the critical for failure resources. Such an approach leads to reasonable performance improvement.
