There is an increasing interest in aerospace industry to increment the flexibility of the systems and reduce their cost. In this way, FPGAs offer several advantages as low-cost platform to deploy customized systems. However, the use of sub-micron technologies has increased their sensitivity to radiation-induced transient faults. Therefore, the mitigation of soft errors in systems based on soft-core microprocessors has become a major concern not only in the case of configuration memory protection, but also in the case of data and control-flow maintenance. Software-based fault tolerance techniques represent a valid alternative to improve the reliability in such systems at a reduced cost, but the associated time and memory overheads can limit their applicability. This chapter provides different implementation alternatives of software-based techniques in order to reduce overheads while keeping the reliability at the same level.
