A Case Study: Pre-Silicon SoC RAS Validation for NoC Server Processor

In this paper, we propose a model along with a novel methodology to represent and validate a Network-On-Chip (NoC) server processor's Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) functions during the pre-silicon design phase. The effectiveness of this methodology is demonstrated in a real-life use case on one of the most advanced NoC Server designs in the industry.
