چکیده

In this paper, we argue that human-factors studies are critical in building a wide range of dependable systems. In particular, only with a deep understanding of the causes, types, and likelihoods of human mistakes can we build systems that prevent, hide, or at least tolerate human mistakes by design. We propose several research directions for studying how humans impact availability in the context of Internet services. In addition, we describe validation as one strategy for hiding human mistakes in these systems. Finally, we propose the use of operator, performance, and availability models to guide human actions. We conclude with a call for the systems community to make the human an integral, first-class concern in computer system design.

CAFT: Cost-aware and Fault-tolerant routing algorithm in 2D mesh Network-on-Chip

By increasing, the complexity of chips and the need to integrating more components into a chip has made network –on- chip known as an important infrastructure for network communications on the system, and is a good alternative to traditional ways and using the bus. By increasing the density of chips, the possibility of failure in the chip network increases and providing correction and fault tol...

Context-aware Modeling for Spatio-temporal Data Transmitted from a Wireless Body Sensor Network

Context-aware systems must be interoperable and work across different platforms at any time and in any place. Context data collected from wireless body area networks (WBAN) may be heterogeneous and imperfect, which makes their design and implementation difficult. In this research, we introduce a model which takes the dynamic nature of a context-aware system into consideration. This model is con...

Design of Physical and Logical Context Aware Middleware

The human-computer interaction depended computing mode is evolved to an intelligent adaptive context aware computing. The corresponding middleware should be adaptive, reflective, dynamic reconfigurable and physical/virtual context aware. In this paper the design of a context-aware middleware is discussed. Some key issues involved, e.g. virtual and meta sensors, reflective context model, multi-a...

Intelligibility and Accountability: Human Considerations in Context-Aware Systems

This essay considers the problem of defining the context that context-aware systems should pay attention to from a human perspective. In particular, we argue that there are human aspects of context that cannot be sensed or even inferred by technological means, so context-aware systems cannot be designed simply to act on our behalf. Rather, they will have to be able to defer to users in an effic...
