Description
Summary:An approach of designing a simulation environment for the on-line monitoring of a fault tolerant flight control computer is presented in this paper. The simulation environment is designed to evaluate an improved on-line monitoring technique for processors with a built-in cache. This technique assumes that a monitor checks on-line whether the execution of a program is in accordance with the control flow graph created for the program off-line by a preprocessor. The simulation environment consists of the target processor and the monitor, but also includes carefully chosen benchmark programs, fault injection modules and the preprocessor.
