Dubrova, Elena.

Fault-Tolerant Design [electronic resource] / by Elena Dubrova. - XV, 185 p. online resource.

Introduction -- Fundamentals of Dependability -- Dependability Evaluation Techniques -- Hardware Redundancy -- Information Redundancy -- Time Redundancy -- Software Redundancy -- Conclusion.

This textbook serves as an introduction to fault-tolerance, intended for upper-division undergraduate students, graduate-level students and practicing engineers in need of an overview of the field.  Readers will develop skills in modeling and evaluating fault-tolerant architectures in terms of reliability, availability and safety.  They will gain a thorough understanding of fault tolerant computers, including both the theory of how to design and evaluate them and the practical knowledge of achieving fault-tolerance in electronic, communication and software systems.  Coverage includes fault-tolerance techniques through hardware, software, information and time redundancy.  The content is designed to be highly accessible, including numerous examples and exercises.  Solutions and powerpoint slides are available for instructors.   ·         Provides textbook coverage of the fundamental concepts of fault-tolerance; ·         Describes a variety of basic techniques for achieving fault-tolerance in electronic, communication and software systems; ·         Guides readers to develop skills in modeling and evaluating fault-tolerant architectures in terms of reliability, availability and safety; ·         Describes in detail sources of faults and means for their prevention and forecasting.
