Fault injection is a powerful method for dependability assessment of a computer system against soft-errors. A considerable number of randomly injected faults in the current methods and tools are effect-less or equivalent. To overcome this problem and reduce the cost of fault injection, this study presents a software based fault-injection method that accurately evaluates the dependability of a computer system with a limited number fault-injection. Using a genetic algorithm (GA) the most vulnerable executable paths of an input program is identified; then only the basic blocs (BBs) into the identified vulnerable paths are considered as the target of fault injection. The results of fault injections on the set of 8 traditional benchmark-programs show that the proposed method reduces about 20% of effect-less faults by avoiding the injection of faults in the error-derating blocks of a program. Furthermore, the number of injected faults is reduced to 60% of its original size in the random injection. Also, the proposed method provides more stable and accurate results than the random injection. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s021812661850144x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,18]],"date-time":"2018-01-18T09:09:57Z","timestamp":1516266597000},"page":"1850144","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A Program-Aware Fault-Injection Method for Dependability Evaluation Against Soft-Error Using Genetic Algorithm"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Bahman","family":"Arasteh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Tabriz Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.compeleceng.2011.07.013"},{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/40.755464"},{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB004","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/12.980007"},{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB005","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/12.811108"},{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/2.982917"},{"key":"S021812661850144XBIB008","volume-title":"Hardware Software Codesign of Multimedia SOC Platform","author":"Chen S.
