چکیده

One of the key areas in which evolvable hardware has been shown to excel is in achieving robust analogue and digital electronics. In this paper this domain is investigated further by manipulation of the digital abstraction. Some of the strict requirements of digital gates are relaxed in order to increase the complexity of the functionality available to evolution in order to evolve fault tolerant designs. Results from extrinsic evolution of a 2-by-2 bit multiplier, based on CMOS technology under various noise and fault conditions, illustrate the suitability of the messy gate methodology used herein for evolution of a fault tolerant design.

Stability Assessment Metamorphic Approach (SAMA) for Effective Scheduling based on Fault Tolerance in Computational Grid

Grid Computing allows coordinated and controlled resource sharing and problem solving in multi-institutional, dynamic virtual organizations. Moreover, fault tolerance and task scheduling is an important issue for large scale computational grid because of its unreliable nature of grid resources. Commonly exploited techniques to realize fault tolerance is periodic Checkpointing that periodically ...

Enhancing NetBeans with Transparent Fault Tolerance Using Meta-Level Architecture

In component-based systems, fault-tolerance concerns are typically handled by manually programmed fault containers. The purpose of fault containers is to prevent error propagation across component boundaries by means of redundant service providers. However, manually programmed fault containers are often subject to evolutionary pressure when components change. In this paper we present a meta-lev...

Novel Defect Terminolgy Beside Evaluation And Design Fault Tolerant Logic Gates In Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata

Quantum dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is one of the important nano-level technologies for implementation of both combinational and sequential systems. QCA have the potential to achieve low power dissipation and operate high speed at THZ frequencies. However large probability of occurrence fabrication defects in QCA, is a fundamental challenge to use this emerging technology. Because of these vari...

Fault Tolerance: Design and Exploratory Ideas

In this article we describe the fault-tolerance architecture of the PerDiS platform. This architecture results from the work that was done in the rst six months at INESC with strong interaction with the other partners of the project (mainly INRIA-SOR and INRIA-SIRAC). We describe the overall fault-tolerance architecture and its integration within PerDiS, the interfaces and implementation provid...
