We propose a quantitative measure for evaluating the timing-reliability of asynchronous circuits designed on a variety of delay model. Using the measure, we evaluate the timing-reliability, as well as the speed performance and hardware cost, for various building blocks of asynchronous systems. Finally, we give a guideline for choosing valid delay models for the design of dependable asynchronous processors
