The imprecise computation(IC) model is a general scheduling framework, capable of expressing the precision vs. timeliness trade-off involved in many current real-time applications...
— Achieving reliability in fault tolerant systems requires both avoidance and redundancy. This study focuses on avoidance as it pertains to the design of microchips. The lifecycl...
Robots possess many effectors and sensors of various capability. It is often difficult, not only to integrate these numerous capabilities, but also to organize them to accomplish ...
We consider the problem of dependable computation with multiple inputs. The goal is to study when redundancy can help to achieve survivability and when it cannot. We use AND/OR gra...
Redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID) provide an ecient stable storage system for parallel access and fault tolerance. The most common fault tolerant RAID architecture is R...
