Arizona State University doctoral student Reiley Jeyapaul's research focuses on finding solutions to the problems that cause computers to crash, lose data, or behave erratically.

Jeyapaul recently presented his work at the International Conference on Parallel Processing and at the International Conference on Compilers, Architectures and Synthesis of Embedded Systems. This year four of Jeyapaul's papers have been accepted for publication and presentation at prestigious computer design conferences, notes ASU professor Aviral Shrivastava.

Jeyapaul currently is researching ways to keep computation reliable despite the ever-shrinking transistors that make computing systems more prone to malfunctions. As part of his research, Jeyapaul has been developing multi-core processors that can diagnose and fix problems without slowing down the cores, which allows computer systems to perform the check-and-correct function while computational activities continue at a normal pace.
