    Abstract: An embodiment of a manager includes at least one input node configured to receive information regarding a region of an integrated circuit, and a determiner configured to determine, in response to the information, a likelihood that the region will cause an error. For example, the region may include a memory, and contents of the memory may be transferred to another, more reliable memory, if the likelihood that the memory will cause an error in the data that it stores equals or exceeds a likelihood threshold.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method includes: receiving, with a first buffer of a first error compactor unit (ECU), a first memory error packet associated with a first memory; receiving, with the first buffer, a second memory error packet associated with a second memory; transmitting a first reading request for reading the first memory error packet; receiving the first reading request with an arbiter of an error aggregator unit (EAU) of a central memory error management unit (MEMU); in response to receiving the first reading request, reading the first memory error packet from the first buffer, transmitting the first memory error packet to a controller of the central MEMU, and transmitting a first acknowledgement to the first ECU; receiving the first acknowledgement with the first ECU; and in response to receiving the first acknowledgement, transmitting a second reading request for reading the second memory error packet.

    Abstract: A safety system monitors faults in an embedded control system. The embedded control system is modeled to produce one or more model check values by calculating how many clock cycles will pass between an initialization time point and at least one event time point for a specific event. The initialization time point is a certain point in an initialization function of a scheduler in the embedded control system. The at least one event time point is an expected number of clock cycles to pass before a specific event occurs. In operation, the embedded control system is initialized, a current clock cycle counter value is retrieved at a certain point in the initialization, and either an occurrence or an absence of an occurrence of a scheduled event is recognized. A current clock cycle value is recorded upon the recognition, and a mathematic check value is produced from the clock cycle value stored at the certain point in the initialization and the clock cycle value recorded upon the recognition. Subsequently, the model check value is compared to the mathematic check value, and action is taken based on the comparison.
