Self-restructuring in Fault Tolerant Architecture: Processor Arrays with Spares

Recently, high-speed and high-quality technologies for processing many kinds of information have become essential and will become more and more necessary in the future. For such needs, parallel computer systems composed of many processing elements (PEs) are used and it is important to make high reliable systems which is called "fault-tolerant computer systems". As VLSI technology has developed, the realization of parallel computer systems using multi-chip module (MCM) or wafer scale integra...
