Look to this innovative resource for the most comprehensive coverage of software fault
tolerance techniques available in a single volume. It offers you a thorough understanding of …

From the Publisher: Software fault tolerance techniques involve error detection, exception
handling, monitoring mechanisms and error recovery. This important book also focuses on …

N-version programming has been proposed as a method of incorporating fault tolerance into
software. Multiple versions of a program (ieN') are prepared and executed in parallel. Their …

Fundamental to the development of redundant software techniques (known as fault-tolerant
software) is an understanding of the impact of multiple joint occurrences of errors, referred to …

Work by DE Eckhardt and LD Lee (1985), shows that independently developed program
versions fail dependently. The authors show that there is a precise duality between input …

Three aspects of the modeling of multiversion software are considered. First, the beta-
binomial distribution is proposed for modeling correlated failures in multiversion software …

Reliability is an important concern in the development of software for modern sys-tems.
Some researchers have hypothesized that particular fault-handling approaches or …

Limitations in the current capabilities for verifying programs by formal proof or by exhaustive
testing have led to the investigation of fault-tolerance techniques for applications where the …
