Abstract

By developing Radiation Hardening by Software (RHBSW) techniques leveraged from the High Performance Computing community, our work seeks to deliver radiation tolerant, high performance System on a Chip (SoC) processors to the remote sensing community. This SoC architecture is uniquely suited to both handle high performance signal processing tasks, as well as autonomous agent processing. This allows situational awareness to be developed in-situ, resulting in a 10-100x decrease in processing latency, which directly translates into more science experiments conducted per day and a more thorough, timely analysis of captured data. With the increase in the amount of computational throughput made possible by commodity high performance processors and low overhead fault tolerance, new applications can be considered for on-board processing. A high performance and low overhead fault tolerance …
