There are many applications in which the reliability of the overall system must be far higher than the reliability of its individual components. In such cases, designers devise mechanisms and architectures that allow the system to either completely
The FlexRay communication protocol described in this document is specified for a dependable automotive network. Some of the basic characteristics of the FlexRay protocol are synchronous and asynchronous frame transfer, guaranteed frame latency and j
Discover the benefits of applying algorithms to solve scientific, engineering, and practical problems Providing a combination of theory, algorithms, and simulations, Handbook of Applied Algorithms presents an all-encompassing treatment of applying a
A wide range of fault tolerance methods for FPGAs have been proposed. Approaches range from simple architectural redundancy to fully on-line adaptive implementations. The applications of these methods also differ; some are used only for manufacturin
This paper presents a new approach for the evaluation of FPGA routing resources in the presence of interconnect faults. All possible interconnect faults for programmable switches and wiring channels are considered. Signal routing in the presence of
MillWheel is a framework for building low-latency data-processing applications that is widely used at Google. Users specify a directed computation graph and application code for individual nodes, and the system manages persistent state and the conti
Group communication services (GCSs) are becoming increasingly important as a wide ¯eld of promising applications has emerged to serve millions of users distributed across the world. However, it is challenging to make the service fault tolerance
Fault tolerance (FT) is well studied and practicedin the past decades to enhance reliability of software systems. Although many sophisticated fault tolerance mechanisms have been developed, they are difficult to be applied to a given systemfor the fo
