Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
As the feature sizes of integrated circuits are reduced to the nanometer scale, the total soft error rate (SER) in memory and the proportion of multiple bit upsets (MBUs) are significantly increasing. In order to ensure the information reliability, many error correction codes with strong error correction ability were proposed, such as Reed-Somolon (RS) code and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) code. However, these error correction codes have limited error correction capability, high algorithm complexity and large data redundancy. In this paper, a novel fault tolerance method for locating and correcting multiple bit errors in memory is proposed based on data similarity. The proposed method uses the inner product as the metric to analyze the similarity of the pre-protected data from the vertical and horizontal dimensions, respectively, and to construct the model of error location and correction. This method performs encoding and decoding in units of blocks and detecting and correcting in units of words, so it can correct any number of bits in a corrupted word with low redundancy overhead. Finally, irradiation tests were conducted on a commercial SRAM, and the feasibility of the proposed method is verified by using heavy ion 86Kr26+ as irradiation source.
