Abstract
This paper focuses on the integration of the fault injection
methodology within the design process of fault-tolerant systems. Due to
its wide spectrum of application and hierarchical features, VHDL has
been selected as the simulation language to support such an integration.
Suitable techniques for injecting faults into VHDL models are identified
and depicted. Then, the main features of the MEFISTO environment aimed
at supporting these techniques are described. Finally, some preliminary
results obtained with MEFISTO are presented and analyzed
