Abstract
Methods and systems mitigate a soft error in an integrated circuit. A map is stored in a memory, and the map specifies a criticality class for each storage bit in the integrated circuit. A mitigative technique is associated with each criticality class. The soft error is detected in a corrupted one of the storage bits. The mitigative technique is performed that is associated with the criticality class specified in the map for the corrupted storage bit.
