16:00-17:30 Session A2: Panel 2: Are last century’s test techniques suitable for 21st century Silent Errors?

Title:

Are last century’s test techniques suitable for 21st century Silent Errors?

Organizer(s):

  • Dr. Sreejit Chakravarty, Intel Corporation, sreejit.chakravarty@intel.com
  • Prof. Subhasish Mitra, Stanford University, USA; subh@stanford.edu

Abstract:

Undetected errors produced by computing systems, also called silent errors, have major consequences ranging from loss of data and services to financial and productivity losses, or even loss of human life. Silent errors produced by computing hardware have been recently identified as a highly critical challenge in several articles by Google, Meta, and New York Times.

The existing HVM test paradigm is falling short. And the test community is helping port the HVM test paradigm to InField Testing to cover for HVM escapes and aging related failures. In this panel, we discuss on whether this is the right approach or if there is a need for a paradigm shift for HVM and InField testing. Several unanswered questions will be touched upon by the panelist. Should we rely on structural, functional, or quasi functional tests? Are HVM fault models like stuck-at etc. the right fault models around which to develop and evaluate the test content to be used for infield testing? Is there a need to rethink how we develop and evaluate online protection schemes like array ECC etc.?  How can academia step in to help us select and develop the new paradigm? What kind of infrastructure support do we need from CAD vendors? We are also looking forward to the audience raising additional questions during this discussion.
