چکیده

Software fault injection has recently started showing great promise as a means for measuring the safety of software programs. This paper shows the results from applying one method for implementing software fault injection, data state error corruption, to the Departure from Nucleate Boiling Ratio (DNBR) code, a research code from the Halden Reactor Project, located in Halden Norway. THE OPINIONS AND VIEWPOINTS PRESENTED ARE THE AUTHOR’S PERSONAL ONES AND THEY DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THE CRITERIA, REQUIREMENTS, AND GUIDELINES OF THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION.

Analysis of Error Propagation Between Software Processes

All software systems can contain faults. In critical systems, this problem is alleviated by controlling the possible effects of a fault being executed, typically through techniques for achieving fault tolerance. Ensuring that failures are properly isolated, and not allowed to propagate, is essential when developing critical systems. In much of the research on error propagation analysis the focu...

A two dimensional Simulation of crack propagation using Adaptive Finite Element Analysis

Finite element method (FEM) is one of the most famous methods which has many applications in varies studies such as the study of crack propagation in engineering structures. However, unless extremely fine meshes are employed, problem arises in accurately modelling the singular stress field in the singular element area around the crack tip. In the present study, the crack growth simulation has b...

Belief propagation and turbo code: Information geometrical view

In this article, we describe the information geometrical understanding of the belief propagation decoder, especially of the turbo decoding. The turbo decoding was proposed by Berrou et al. early in 90’s, and many studies have been appeared on this practical and powerful error correcting code. Even though many experimental results support the potential of the turbo decoding, there is not suffici...

بررسی نشت پودر مولیبدن از راکتور تحقیقاتی تهران در اثر اشتباه فرضی نیروی انسانی

The assessment of the absorbed doses around the nuclear reactors in normal operation and emergency condition is urgent for nuclear reactors safety. In this study the total effective dose equivalent (TEDE) for public and personnel for active molybdenum powder discharge from the 5 MW Tehran Research Reactor (TRR) due to human error using HOTSPOT 2.07 health physics code was evaluated. It was assu...

EFL Teachers’ Corrective Feedback and Students’ Revision in a Peruvian University: A descriptive study

This study explored the EFL teachers’ written corrective feedback (CF) techniques and their EFL students’ ability to integrate the CF while revising their texts. A total of 72 EFL students and 4 EFL teachers participated in this study. The data were collected through explicitation interviews administered to teachers and students, as well as through students’ written productions. A content analy...
