"This paper presents an analysis of the fault tolerance achieved by an autonomous, fully embedded evolvablehardware system, which uses a combination of partial dynamic reconfiguration and an evolutionary algorithm (EA). Itdemonstrates that the system may self-recover from both transient and cumulative permanent faults. This self-adaptive system, based on a 2D array of 16 (4x4) Processing Elements (PEs), is tested with an image filtering application. Results show that it may properly recover from faults in up to 3 PEs, that is, more than 18% cumulative permanent faults. Two fault models are used for testing purposes, at PE and CLB levels. Two self-healing strategies are also introduced, depending on whether fault diagnosis is available or not. They are based on scrubbing, fitness evaluation, dynamic partial reconfiguration and in-system evolutionary adaptation. Since most of these adaptability features are already available on the system for its normal operation, resource cost for self-heal" . . "IEEE Computer Society" . "Mora, Javier" . .
