Fault-Tolerant Networks for Electronic Textiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Given the dynamic and harsh environments of electronic textile applications, particularly wearable computers and large-scale sensor networks, fault-tolerance is necessary. The interconnection network should route around faults in communication links and processing nodes. The mechanisms of error detection and route change decisions will be presented. Simulation results of the full network are reported.

Decreasing Power Consumption of a Medical E-textile
In this paper we present a novel design of a wearable electronic textile. After defining a special application, we used the specifications of some low power, tiny elements including sensors, microcontrollers, transceivers, and a fault tolerant special topology to have the most reliability as well as low power consumption and longer lifetime. We have considered two different conditions as normal...

متن کاملFault tolerance of the TBSF (Tandem Banyan Switching Fabrics) and PBSF (Piled Banyan Switching Fabrics)
Multistage Interconnection Networks (MIN) with multiple outlets are networks which can support higher bandwidth than those of nonblocking networks by passing multiple packets to the same destination. Fault recovery mechanisms are proposed for two of such networks (TBSF/PBSF) with the best use of their inherent fault tolerant capability. With these mechanisms, on-the-fly fault recovery is possib...
متن کاملReliability Analysis of Fault-Tolerant Bus-Based Interconnection Networks
Multi-processor systems need interconnection networks (INs) in order to make the connection among the processors, memory modules, and nodes. Bus interconnection network is the simplest and least expensive one among all the INs. Therefore, bus network is easily understood and preferred by manufactures for implementation. However, a bus network is inherently a non-fault tolerant and blocking netw...
