Evolvable Hardware for Fault-Tolerant Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
When a system (natural or man-made) reaches a certain level of complexity, it becomes very difficult to grasp all of its underlying dynamics, and therefore, it becomes less controllable and less reliable [1]. However, the needs of the modern individual are fulfilled using extremely complex systems. What would our society be without computers, satellites, medicines, mega-software and free market? Complex systems are the foundation of our lifestyle but they have become very difficult to design.

On Feasibility of Adaptive Level Hardware Evolution for Emergent Fault Tolerant Communication
A permanent physical fault in communication lines usually leads to a failure. The feasibility of evolution of a self organized communication is studied in this paper to defeat this problem. In this case a communication protocol may emerge between blocks and also can adapt itself to environmental changes like physical faults and defects. In spite of faults, blocks may continue to function since ...
متن کاملFault-tolerant evolvable hardware using field-programmable transistor arrays
The paper presents an evolutionary approach to the design of fault-tolerant VLSI (very large scale integrated) circuits using EHW (evolvable hardware). The EHW research area comprises a set of applications where GA (genetic algorithm) are used for the automatic synthesis and adaptation of electronic circuits. EHW is particularly suitable for applications requiring changes in task requirements a...
متن کاملGRACE: Generative Robust Analog Circuit Exploration
We motivate and describe an analog evolvable hardware design platform named GRACE (i.e. Generative Robust Analog Circuit Exploration). GRACE combines coarse-grained, topological circuit search with intrinsic testing on a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) field programmable device, the Anadigm AN221E04. It is suited for adaptive, fault tolerant system design as well as CAD flow applications.
متن کاملEvolving Fault Tolerance on an Unreliable Technology Platform
One of the key areas in which evolvable hardware has shown to excel is in achieving robust analogue and digital electronics. In this paper this domain is investigated further by manipulation of the digital abstraction. Some of the strict requirements of digital gates are relaxed in order to increase the complexity of the functionality available to evolution in order to evolve fault tolerant des...
