Improving Fault Tolerance using Execution Guarantees
نویسنده
چکیده
Dependability in todays software systems is hard to achieve. Missing physical boundaries like the laws of nature in other engineering disciplines and a lack of understanding how to control the software runtime behavior to enforce consistency are two major reasons. This paper introduces a novel approach to improving software systems’ dependability by the concept of execution guarantees.

متن کاملDistributed Speculations: Providing Fault-tolerance and Improving Performance
This thesis introduces a new programming model based on speculative execution and it examines the use of speculations, a form of distributed transactions, for improving the performance, reliability and fault tolerance of distributed systems. A speculation is defined as a computation that is based on an assumption that is not validated before the computation is started. If the assumption is late...
