Clustering has been an active research area of great practical importance for recent years. Most previous clustering models have focused on grouping objects with similar values on a (sub)set of dimensions (e.g., subspace cluster) and assumed that every object has an associated value on every dimension (e.g., bicluster). These existing cluster models may not always be adequate in capturing coher...

March tests have been widely used for detecting functional faults during SRAM testing. Recent development has extended the March test for diagnostic purpose to locate and identify the fault types. This paper analyses March algorithms for detection and diagnosis of Stuck-At Faults (SAFs) and Transition Faults (TFs). Unfortunately, the algorithms under studied are not able to distinguish between ...

Until now, the analysis of fault tolerance of peer-to-peer (p2p) systems usually only covers random faults of some kind. Contrary to traditional algorithmic research, faults as well as joins and leaves occurring in a worst-case manner in p2p systems are hardly considered. Most fault tolerance analyzes are static in the sense that it is shown that a system tolerates a certain number of simultane...

In this paper, a fault diagnosis system based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) is designed to diagnose different types of fault in gears and bearings. DWT is an advanced signal-processing technique for fault detection and identification. Five features of wavelet transform RMS, crest factor, kurtosis, standard deviation and skewness of discrete wavelet co...

Since 1995, the Performance and Dependability Symposium (PDS) has been a high-quality international forum for researchers and practitioners to report on the state-of-the-art of the evaluation of the impact of faults on the operation and performance of computer and communication systems. Where in the early years of PDS the considered faults were typically accidental (hardware failures, software ...
