DESCRIPTION:Sarita Adve\, Visiting Professor at IC (EPFL)\, and Prof. at t
 he University of Illinois\nApproximate computing is often described as a p
 aradigm that enables trading output quality for resource usage. Real-time 
 systems (and other) communities\, however\, have traded quality for resour
 ces for decades. Approximate computing is also described as exploiting app
 lications' inherent ability to tolerate faults and imprecision. Software-d
 riven hardware resiliency approaches have exploited such attributes for lo
 w-cost resilience for a few years now. This talk will attempt to connect t
 he old with the new and separate the hype from what could truly be the new
  frontier. I will draw from my experiences with the GRACE real-time resour
 ce management and the SWAT software-driven hardware resiliency projects.
