A Real-Time Fault Tolerant Intra-Body Network

نویسنده

  • Sanjeev Baskiyar
چکیده

This paper designs an intra-body network (IBN) of nodes, consisting of small sensors and processing elements (SPEs) placed at different locations within the body and a Personal Digital Assistant placed externally but in close proximity to the body. The sensors measure specific physiological attributes such as electrophysiological and biochemical changes in the myocardium (action potentials of cells), glucose level, blood viscosity etc. and forward them to the processing element. Communication protocols for configuration and data access protocols are proposed. The privacy of the IBN data, fault tolerance and real-time data acquisition are addressed.

A generalized ABFT technique using a fault tolerant neural network

In this paper we first show that standard BP algorithm cannot yeild to a uniform information distribution over the neural network architecture. A measure of sensitivity is defined to evaluate fault tolerance of neural network and then we show that the sensitivity of a link is closely related to the amount of information passes through it. Based on this assumption, we prove that the distribu...

An FDDI-Based Reconfigurable Network for Fault-Tolerant Real-Time Communications - Fault-Tolerant Parallel and Distributed Systems, 1994., Proceedings of IEEE Workshop on

We propose and analyze an FDDI-Based Reconfigumble Network (FBRN), with the aim of providing fault-tolerant real-time communication services in mission-critical systems. An FBRN consists of multiple FDDI tmnk rings and has the ability to reconfigure itself in the face of extensive damage. We discuss diflerent fault management mechanisms built into the network and analyze their impact on availab...

Fault-tolerant Real-Time Communication in FDDI-Based Networks

U sers are increasingly deploying high-speed networks in distributed computer systems. These networks may have stringent real-time and fault-tolerance requirements. FDDI (fiber distributed data interface) 1 is a 100-Mbps local area network based on a token ring media access control protocol defined by ANSI and OSI standards. It has built-in provisions for fault-tolerance and real-time communica...

CAFT: Cost-aware and Fault-tolerant routing algorithm in 2D mesh Network-on-Chip

By increasing, the complexity of chips and the need to integrating more components into a chip has made network –on- chip known as an important infrastructure for network communications on the system, and is a good alternative to traditional ways and using the bus. By increasing the density of chips, the possibility of failure in the chip network increases and providing correction and fault tol...
