Abstract
Algorithm-based fault tolerance provides a means of low-cost error protection in real-time signal-processing environments. A novel linear algebraic interpretation is developed for previously proposed algorithm-based fault-tolerance schemes. The concepts of distance, code space, and the definitions of detection and correction in the vector space R/sup n/ are clarified. Error detection and error correction performances are proved for distance-d+1 codes. It is shown why the correction scheme does not work for general weight vectors, and a novel fast-correction algorithm is derived for a distance-5 code.<>
