An Enhanced Debugger for Real-Time Fault Injection
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a case study on the reuse of the on chip debug infrastructures, present in most recent microprocessors, to execute real time fault injection campaigns. It is based on a debugger customized for fault injection and designed for maximum performance and flexibility. The developed methodology can be applied on the verification of dependable systems.

متن کاملAutomated Fault-Inject Based Dependability Analysis of Distributed Computer Systems
Recently, there has been interest in developing a dependability benchmarks for computer systems. This will require a way to inject several different types of faults into many different platforms and a way to collect and compare the results. Analyzing complex heterogeneous distributed systems share the same needs. The current approach to building fault injection tool is inappropriate for these g...
متن کاملNFTAPE: A Framework for Assessing Dependability in Distributed Systems with Lightweight Fault Injectors
Many fault injection tools are available for dependability assessment. Although these tools are good at injecting a single fault model into a single system, they suffer from two main limitations for use in distributed systems: (1) no single tool is sufficient for injecting all necessary fault models; (2) it is difficult to port these tools to new systems. NFTAPE, a tool for composing automated ...

This report describes a project in Distributed Reconngurable Real-Time Database Systems, which was funded and initiated in February 1994, and is planned to last until June of 1996. The purpose of the project is to strengthen competence in distributed real-time systems, in particular reconngurable (fault-tolerant) real-time databases. Our short-term goal is to build an experimental platform, on ...
