the soft error problem an Architectural Perspective
High-Performance Computer Architecture, 2005Co-Authors: Shubhendu S Mukherjee, Joel Emer, Steven K ReinhardtAbstract:Radiation-induced soft errors have emerged as a key challenge in computer system design. If the industry is to continue to provide customers with the level of reliability they expect, microprocessor architects must address this challenge directly. This effort has two parts. First, architects must understand the impact of soft errors on their designs. Second, they must select judiciously from among available techniques to reduce this impact in order to meet their reliability targets with minimum overhead. To provide a foundation for these efforts, this paper gives a broad overview of the soft error problem from an Architectural Perspective. We start with basic definitions, followed by a description of techniques to compute the soft error rate. Then, we summarize techniques used to reduce the soft error rate. This paper also describes problems with double-bit errors. Finally, this paper outlines future directions for architecture research in soft errors.

inpatient unit flexibility design characteristics of a successful flexible unit
Environment and Behavior, 2008Co-Authors: Debajyoti Pati, Thomas E Harvey, Carolyn L CasonAbstract:Flexibility in health care design is typically addressed from an Architectural Perspective without a systematic understanding of its meaning from the end-user's viewpoint. Moreover, the Architectural Perspectives have been generally focused on expandability and convertibility. This study explored flexibility needs in adult medical-surgical inpatient care with the objective to understand its meaning from an end-user Perspective and identify characteristics of the physical environment that promote or impede stakeholders' requirements. Semistructured interviews were conducted using a qualitative design with 48 stakeholders in nursing and nursing-support services at 6 hospitals across the United States. Data were collected during September–November 2006. Findings suggest that adaptability influences more aspects of unit operations than convertibility or expandability. Furthermore, physical design characteristics affect 9 critical operational issues where flexibility is required, spanning nursing, environmenta...

a web service Architectural Perspective on risk management in work environments
2010 10th Annual International Conference on New Technologies of Distributed Systems (NOTERE), 2010Co-Authors: Mariagrazia Fugini, Claudia Raibulet, Luigi UbezioAbstract:This paper provides a Web-service based software Architectural Perspective on the design of systems able to identify; and solve risky situations that may occur in work environments. The technological and computational advances in the IT world (e.g., service-oriented, wearable services) may provide a significant support for the management of risks, and implicitly the reduction of the accidents in the work environment. This paper discusses how a Web-service architecture can be implemented for a Risk Management System. In this context, the Web-based technologies and solutions are fundamental for the access of critical information, communication of the main decisions, and contact of the actors of the system from anywhere and from any type of device.
