Abstract

Considering the current trend of building systems from existing components that allow neither code inspection nor change, the solution for enabling dynamic adaptation of software systems should not be intrusive in the way that components should be designed. The architectural approach for treating faults described in this paper, instead of providing mechanisms and techniques at the component level, it relies on the interactions between components for obtaining flexible software structures that are nevertheless robust to the occurrence of undesirable events.

On Architecting Software Fault Tolerance using Abstractions

In this position paper, we argue how architectural abstractions can be effective in developing fault-tolerant software systems. Depending on the fault model and the resources available, different abstractions can be employed for representing ...
A Fault Tolerant Architecture for Data Fusion Targeting Hardware and Software Faults
PRDC '14: Proceedings of the 2014 IEEE 20th Pacific Rim International Symposium on Dependable Computing

This paper presents a fault tolerance architecture for data fusion mechanisms that tolerates hardware faults in the sensors and software faults in the data fusion. After introducing the basic concepts of fault tolerance and data fusion, we present first ...

EDCC '10: Proceedings of the 2010 European Dependable Computing Conference

Fault Tolerance Mechanisms (FTMs) are extensively used in software systems to counteract software faults, in particular against faults that manifest transiently, namely Mandelbugs. In this scenario, Software Fault Injection (SFI) plays a key role for ...
