The heavy ion rate calculation involves the probability of depositing an adequate amount of energy, which depends on the device dimensions and the environment. There has been an evolution of approaches for considering these factors. This chapter presents historical treatment of the development and use of the concepts. Pickel and Blandford introduced a comprehensive code for upset rate calculations. The approach was to integrate over the integral linear energy transfer (LET)spectrum, the differential path length distribution, with the integration variable being the path length. They used the rectangular parallelepiped (RPP) volume with an exact differential path length distribution derived by Petroff. The calculations were then used to calculate the upset rate as a function of critical charge. The most financially significant Monte Carlo code has been the IBM code SEMM. This was the basis of the IBM single event upset (SEU) hardening program for cosmic ray induced errors described in.
