[comp.arch] Transient faults in memories

marc@oahu.cs.ucla.edu (Marc Tremblay) (10/17/89)

We often hear that most of the errors caused by hardware faults
in computer systems are the result of transients faults in memories.

Does anybody actually have a reference on this "fact"?

Check some of the work published by R.K.Iyer of U.Illinois Urbana
Champaign. At one point he was doing system level work on faults.
