Abstract

Methods and systems for cross-layer forgiveness exploitation include executing one or more applications using a processing platform that includes a first reliable processing core and at least one additional processing core having a lower reliability than the first processing core, modifying application execution according to one or more best-effort techniques to improve performance, and controlling parameters associated with the processing platform and the best-effort layer that control performance and error rate such that performance is maximized in a region of low hardware-software interference.
