Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is the most popular model to facilitate the building of distributed programs. However, it only provides a restricted availability of update operations and does not support fault-tolerant. The combination of RPC and data replication techniques has been developed to support fault-tolerant from Remote Procedure Call (RPC). However, different data replication techniques ...

Fault-tolerance is the survival attribute of the real-time software system. The software should provide correct results in the face of various failures. A major technological concern for the coming years is the ever widening gap between the demand for high quality, robust software and its supply. Software fault tolerance is basically the design faults in the computer system. Its function is to ...

This paper proposes a new dynamic and algorithm-based approach to achieve fault tolerance using 3D cellular genetic algorithms (Dynamic Fault-Tolerant 3D-cGA). The proposed algorithm is an improved version of our previous algorithm (Fault-Tolerant 3D-cGA) that introduces and utilizes a dynamic adaptation feature to achieve further improvement. In Dynamic Fault-Tolerant 3D-cGA, faulty individual...

Fault tolerant design is a technique emerging in Integrated Circuits (IC’s) to deal with the increasing error susceptibility (Soft Errors, or Single Event Upsets, SEU) caused by e.g. alpha particles. A side effect of these methods is that they also compensate for manufacturing defects (the Hard Errors). Currently, yield engineers focus on perfecting the manufacturing process and designers spend...

For the interconnection network topology, it is usually represented by a graph. When a network is used, processors and/or links faults may happen. Thus, it is meaningful to consider faulty networks. We consider k-regular graphs in this paper. We define a k-regular hamiltonian and hamiltonian connected graph G is super fault-tolerant hamiltonian if G remains hamiltonian after removing at most k ...

Reversible Logic is gaining significant consideration as the potential logic design style for implementation in modern nanotechnology and quantum computing with minimal impact on physical entropy .Fault Tolerant reversible logic is one class of reversible logic that maintain the parity of the input and the outputs. Significant contributions have been made in the literature towards the design of...

This paper introduces different views for understanding problems and faults with the goal of defining a method for the formal specification of systems. The idea of Layered Fault Tolerant Specification (LFTS) is proposed to make the method extensible to fault tolerant systems. The principle is layering the specification in different levels, the first one for the normal behavior and the others fo...

This paper proposed an observer based fault-tolerant control approach for the fuzzy T-S systems with sensors and actuators faults. By establishing the actuator fault and sensor fault models, an observer based fuzzy output feedback fault tolerant controller is developed and new stabilization conditions of the fuzzy fault tolerant control systems are given, which are formulated in terms of linear...

In this paper, we deal with two important issues in relation to modular reconfigurable manipulators, namely, the determination of the modular assembly configuration optimally suited to perform a specific task and the synthesis of fault tolerant systems. We present a numerical approach yielding an assembly configuration that satisfies four kinematic task requirements: reachability, joint limits,...

As technology shifts from centralized computing to distributed computing and then to ubiquitous computing, the users are more dependent on the computer system for task delegation. Here autonomous agent and Multi Agent System (MAS) plays an important role to perform the task delegated by the user. As the fault in MAS is not-deterministic in nature, so designing fault tolerant MAS is a challengin...
