Opis

The only recent book on dependability/fault-tolerance that covers both software and hardware aspects of dependability, Dependable Computing Design and Assessment addresses the new reality of dependability. After a discussion of reliability, availability, and hardware and software fault models, the authors explore hardware redundancy, coding techniques, processor-level error detection and recovery, checkpoint and recovery, software fault tolerance techniques, and network-specific issues. Ideal for both students and practitioners, the capabilities and applicability of all techniques are illustrated with examples of actual applications and systems.
