Abstract

A voter-based method of controlling a redundancy is provided, including acquiring a processing element array in a target hardware, wherein the processing element array includes a plurality of processing elements, selecting a plurality of groups of processing elements from the processing element array so as to generate a voter set, wherein a corresponding voter is generated for each group of the plurality of groups of processing elements, and the corresponding voter configured to perform a voting operation in a redundancy control, acquiring, in response to a message indicating a fault state of a detected voter, a target voter from the voter set so as to replace the detected voter, and re-performing the voting operation in the redundancy control by using the target voter. An electronic device and a storage medium are further provided, which are implemented based on the processing element array of the target hardware.
