Fault Tolerance must be provided to increase system reliability. Combining efficiency with fault tolerance is a difficult task. Fault Tolerance requires the use of redundancy while efficiency requires the elimination of redundancy. Several fault tolerance techniques have been proposed in the literature to manage the redundancy existing in the system in order to provide fault tolerance. These te...

due to limitations in computing resources of mobile nodes, mobile ad-hoc networks (manets) are very fault-prone. so far, redundancy at different levels of the network has been considered an efficient strategy to enhance the fault-tolerance of networks. indeed, ad-hoc networks are extremely redundant; therefore, natural redundancy to fault tolerance enhancement has a great impact on the network ...

as technology scales deep into the nanometer regime, on-chip communication becomes more susceptible to transient noise sources, such as crosstalk, external radiation, and spurious voltage spikes. the network on chip s modularity and reusability has brought about the use of error control methods to address transient errors in network on chip links.in this work, we design a fault tolerance router...

Grid Computing allows coordinated and controlled resource sharing and problem solving in multi-institutional, dynamic virtual organizations. Moreover, fault tolerance and task scheduling is an important issue for large scale computational grid because of its unreliable nature of grid resources. Commonly exploited techniques to realize fault tolerance is periodic Checkpointing that periodically ...

Process groups are a common abstraction for fault-tolerant computing in distributed systems. We present a security architecture that extends.Abstract Concerns about both security and fault-tolerance have had an important. Tion of fault tolerance will face some of the same problems, and benefit from. The security testing prototype is.A Secure and Fault-tolerant framework for Mobile. Of Computer ...

In dynamic systems that adapt to users’ needs and changing environments, dependability needs cannot be avoided. This paper proposes an orthogonal fault tolerance model as a means to manage and reason about multiple fault tolerance mechanisms that co-exist in dynamically adaptive systems. One of the key challenges associated with dynamically evolving fault tolerance needs is the feature interact...

changes in the physicochemical conditions of process unit, even under control, may lead to what are generically referred to as faults. the cognition of causes is very important, because the system can be diagnosed and fault tolerated. in this article, we discuss and propose an artificial neural network that can detect the incipient and gradual faults either individually or mutually. the main fe...
