There has been considerable development in the domain of dependability engineering and
analysis in recent decades. The quality guidelines related to dependability attributes such as …

Critical services in a telecommunication network should be continuously provided even
when undesirable events like sabotage, natural disasters, or network failures happen. It is …

An increasing number of large-scale distributed systems are being built by incorporating
Cloud, Fog, and Edge computing. There is an important need of understanding how to …

Performance and availability are mutually-dependent quality aspects of drone application
systems. Computations on the drone, like image processing, need good performance but …

Ocean exploration, through the development of oceanobservation systems, has been
recognized as a key step toward a fuller understanding of life on Earth. With the rapid …

Network survivability analysis in MANETs was hardly an issue in the early years of wireless
technology because there were no critical network system that depended on wireless …

Network survivability is the ability of a network to stay connected under failures and attacks,
which is a fundamental issue to the design and performance evaluation of wireless ad hoc …

Recently Network Fault Prediction (NFP) has arisen new scientific interest. The ability to
predict network equipment failure is increasingly identified as an effective tool to improve …

In this paper, we present a general survivability quantification approach that is applicable to
a wide range of system architectures, applications, failure/recovery behaviors, and metrics …
