SGER：用于架构和容错的无线技术该研究将调查在计算机系统中使用无线通信作为通信侧信道的可行性，以提高性能和可靠性。该方案的优点是降低了辅助铜线布线的复杂性和成本，实现了全向通信。适合带宽的功能，如缓存块更新、多处理器缓存一致性、在线故障诊断和可扩展内存将是初始性能和可靠性改进的目标。在这项工作中，我们将研究无线侧信道通信的可行性，用于许多不同的有前途的功能，并确定架构设计和实现权衡。长期的努力是通过使用通信技术的层次结构来改造计算机系统。

SGER: Wireless Techniques for Architecture and Fault ToleranceThe research will investigate the viability of using wireless communication as a side-channel for communication in a computer system to increase performance and reliability. The advantages of the scheme are the reduction in the complexity and cost of auxiliary copper wiring and omni-directional communication. Suitable bandwidth-appropriate functions such as cache block updates, multiprocessor cache coherence, on-line fault diagnosis, and expandable memory will be the target for initial performance and reliability improvements.In this work we will investigate the feasibility of wireless side-channel communication for a number of different promising functions, and identify architectural design and implementation tradeoffs. Long-term efforts are directed towards transforming computer systems by the use of a hierarchy of communication technologies.
