چکیده

The incorporation of fault tolerance techniques into robot systems improves the reliability, but also increases the hardware and computational requirements in the overall system. It is not always clear how to evaluate the merit, orèeectiveness' of diierent fault tolerance approaches for a given application. In this paper, we present a new set of performance criteria designed to measure and compare the eeectiveness of robot fault tolerance strategies. The measures, which are designed to evaluate fault tolerance/performance/cost tradeoos, can also be used to evaluate pure performance or pure fault tolerance strategies. We show their usefulness using a variety of proposed fault tolerance approaches in the literature, focusing on multiprocessor control architectures.

Stability Assessment Metamorphic Approach (SAMA) for Effective Scheduling based on Fault Tolerance in Computational Grid

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 ...

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...

Reliability and Performance Evaluation of Fault-aware Routing Methods for Network-on-Chip Architectures (RESEARCH NOTE)

Nowadays, faults and failures are increasing especially in complex systems such as Network-on-Chip (NoC) based Systems-on-a-Chip due to the increasing susceptibility and decreasing feature sizes. On the other hand, fault-tolerant routing algorithms have an evident effect on tolerating permanent faults and improving the reliability of a Network-on-Chip based system. This paper presents reliabili...
