This paper presents a computer architecture with the ability to respond to radiation-induced faults. The architecture presented advances the state-of-the-art by implementing a redundant multiprocessor system on a commercial-off-the-shelf field programmable gate array. The system, called RadPC, can respond to radiation-induced faults and undergo repairs as necessary. A reliability analysis is conducted using Markov chain models to characterize the architecture’s ability to continue performance despite faults. Further analysis regarding expected radiation exposure is provided for runtime context of the architecture.
