Two approaches are known for enhancing the fault tolerance of systolic arrays through reconfiguration. They are different in the bypassing function. One leads to an easier reconfiguration procedure, whereas the other provides better utilization of nonfaulty cells. It seems that both approaches may have the same probability of successful reconfiguration for practical failure rates of cells but not for all other failure rates. In this paper, we investigate this supposition, and conclude that the two approaches perform equally well for all practical cell failure rates and array sizes.

AB - Two approaches are known for enhancing the fault tolerance of systolic arrays through reconfiguration. They are different in the bypassing function. One leads to an easier reconfiguration procedure, whereas the other provides better utilization of nonfaulty cells. It seems that both approaches may have the same probability of successful reconfiguration for practical failure rates of cells but not for all other failure rates. In this paper, we investigate this supposition, and conclude that the two approaches perform equally well for all practical cell failure rates and array sizes.
