Fault tolerant placement and defect reconfiguration for nano-FPGAs
—When manufacturing nano-devices, defects are a certainty and reliability becomes a critical issue. Until now, the most pervasive methods used to address reliability, involve inj...

An approximation algorithm for the fault tolerant metric facility location problem
We consider a fault tolerant version of the metric facility location problem in which every city, j, is required to be connected to rj facilities. We give the first non-trivial ap...

A Problem-Specific Fault-Tolerance Mechanism for Asynchronous, Distributed Systems
The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...

Approximating Fault-Tolerant Group-Steiner Problems
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...

The Startup Problem in Fault-Tolerant Time-Triggered Communication
Fault-tolerant time-triggered communication relies on the synchronization of local clocks. The startup problem is the problem of reaching a sufficient degree of synchronization a...
