A Compact Model to Evaluate the Effects of High Level C++ Code Hardening in Radiation Environments. Electronics, 8 (6), 653.2079-9292https://hdl.handle.net/11441/88585A high-level C++ hardening library is designed for the protection of critical software against the harmful effects of radiation environments that can damage systems. A mathematical and empirical model to predict system behavior in the presence of radiation induced faults is also presented. This model generates a quick evaluation and adjustment of several reliability vs. performance trade-offs, to optimize radiation hardening based on the proposed C++ hardening library. Several simulations and irradiation campaigns with protons and neutrons are used to build the model and to tune it. Finally, the effects of our hardening approach are compared with other hardened and non-hardened approaches.application/pdfengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/fault tolerancesingle event upsetproton irradiation effectsneutron irradiation effectssoft errorsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess10.3390/electronics8060653
