    Predicting the Soft Error Vulnerability of Gpgpu Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Topçu, Burak; Öz, Işıl
    As Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have evolved to deliver performance increases for general-purpose computations as well as graphics and multimedia applications, soft error reliability becomes an important concern. The soft error vulnerability of the applications is evaluated via fault injection experiments. Since performing fault injection takes impractical times to cover the fault locations in complex GPU hardware structures, prediction-based techniques have been proposed to evaluate the soft error vulnerability of General-Purpose GPU (GPGPU) programs based on the hardware performance characteristics.In this work, we propose ML-based prediction models for the soft error vulnerability evaluation of GPGPU programs. We consider both program characteristics and hardware performance metrics collected from either the simulation or the profiling tools. While we utilize regression models for the prediction of the masked fault rates, we build classification models to specify the vulnerability level of the programs based on their silent data corruption (SDC) and crash rates. Our prediction models achieve maximum prediction accuracy rates of 96.6%, 82.6%, and 87% for masked fault rates, SDCs, and crashes, respectively.

    Saydam Artıklı Çalıştırma için Vekil Tasarım Örüntüsü Kullanımı

    In this study, we propose a transparent model for reliable execution of object-oriented software. We design a generic object-oriented programming tool for redundant software execution to provide the desired level of reliability against transient hardware faults. To achieve this, we utilize the Proxy design pattern which is one of the well-known GoF design patterns that are formed to make software systems exible and easy to maintain. Proxy design pattern provides a controlled access and a transparent mechanism for adding new functionalities to an existing object when accessing it. Combining the instruments of dynamic proxy and annotations in Java programming language, we present, Redundant- Caller, a generic, transparent, and con gurable tool for redundant execution and majority voting. Our tool takes any object and creates a dynamic proxy for it which executes the methods of the object multiple times in separate threads, and performs majority voting on the background, requiring minimum amount of change in the original user code. Thanks to annotations, users can con gure the redundant execution scheme methodwise. Our experiments demonstrate that our tool provides a signi cant level of reliability to any object-oriented software with a reasonable amount of performance degradation through multithreaded execution.
