Software-Based Fault Tolerance: Towards New Advances for COTS-Based Embedded Systems
Embedded systems with high dependability requirements have to satisfy ever-growing demands for high computing performance, number of implemented features and cost-efficiency. This leads to a move to commercial off-the-shelf hardware components. At the same time, the number of faults in embedded systems increases due to shrinking hardware feature sizes and increasing software complexity. In orde...
متن کاملTowards Middleware for Fault-Tolerance in Distributed Real-Time and Embedded Systems
Distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems often require support for multiple simultaneous quality of service (QoS) properties, such as real-timeliness and fault tolerance, that operate within resource constrained environments. These resource constraints motivate the need for a lightweight middleware infrastructure, while the need for simultaneous QoS properties require the middleware to ...
متن کاملSoftware Tool Combining Fault Masking with User-Defined Recovery Strategies
We describe the voting farm, a tool which implements a distributed software voting mechanism for a number of parallel message passing systems. The tool, developed in the framework of EFTOS (Embedded Fault-Tolerant Supercomputing), can be used in stand-alone mode or in conjunction with other EFTOS fault tolerance tools. In the former case, we describe how the mechanism can be exploited, e.g., to...
متن کاملHardware/Software Codesign of Embedded Systems with Reconfigurable and Heterogeneous Platforms
Adrian Alin Lifa Modern applications running on today’s embedded systems have very high requirements. Most often, these requirements have many dimensions: the applications need high performance as well as flexibility, energy-efficiency as well as real-time properties, fault tolerance as well as low cost. In order to meet these demands, the industry is adopting architectures that are more and mo...
متن کاملFault Tolerant Computing via Monitors
The growing use of embedded computers for both military and commercial applications has in~reased the imp~rtance of reliability in c?~puter .design. A g~neric technique called computer monitoring IS explored for ItS fault tolerant capabIlItIes, wIth emphaSIS on transient fault detection. The success of a particular monitor (the program flow monitor) is established through experimentation and is...
