In this presentation, an approach to fault-tolerant systems design and synthesis
based on High-level Synthesis (HLS) is shown. A description and evaluation of the
impacts of HLS optimization methods are shown as well. The higher reliability is
achieved through modification of input description in the C++ programming
language, which the HLS synthesis tools are based on. Our work targets SRAM-based
FPGAs, which are prone to Single Event Upsets (SEUs). For the evaluation of the
impacts of faults we use our evaluation platform, which allows us to test fault
tolerance properties of the Design Under Test (DUT). The evaluation platform is
based on functional verification combined with fault injection.
