Faults in Grids: Why are they so bad and What can be done about it?
Computational Grids have the potential to become the main execution platform for high performance and distributed applications. However, such systems are extremely complex and prone to failures. In this paper, we present a survey with the grid community on which several people shared their actual experience regarding fault treatment. The survey reveals that, nowadays, users have to be highly in...
متن کاملWhy Drosophila is not Drosophila any more, why it will be worse and what can be done about it?
Formally, Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, 1830 is still Drosophila; however, it just waits for the first formal revision of the genus. On the basis of a 23 : 4 vote, the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature rejected the proposal (Kim van der Linde et al., 2007) to make an exception to the rules and to switch the type of the genus Drosophila from D. funebris to D. melanogaster in ...
متن کاملThe Objectization Problem - What It Is And What Can be Done About It
The packaging of both data and procedures into autonomous units is one of the key insights exploited in object-oriented programming. By projecting the system state space into independent object spaces and by limiting the effects of one object’s actions on another through an object’s methods, implementation changes in one object will not be visible to other objects. This clean delineation into o...
متن کاملWhy aren’t depot antipsychotics prescribed more often and what can be done about it?
Long-acting depot antipsychotics were developed specifically to promote treatment adherence (compliance) and they are a valuable option for patients requiring maintenance medication for schizophrenia. Depot use has fallen in recent years, perhaps owing to the introduction of oral atypical antipsychotics. Psychiatrist and patient acceptance of depot medication is variable. The depot formulation ...
متن کاملWhy Do Computers Stop and What Can Be Done About It?
An analysis of the failure statistics of a commercially available fault-tolerant system shows that administration and software are the major contributors to failure. Various approaches to software fault-tolerance are then discussed -notably process-pairs, transactions and reliable storage. It is pointed out that faults in production software are often soft (transient) and that a transaction mec...
