Fault Diagnosis and Fault Tolerance
Author: Tinghuai ChenPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642771793
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
With the rapid growth of integration scale of VLSI chips and the present need for reliable computers in space exploration, fault diagnosis and fault toleran ce have become more important than before, and hence reveal a lot of interest ing topics which attract many researchers to make a great number of contribu tions to this field. In recent years, many new and significant results have been achieved. A quick scan over the proceedings of the conferences on fault tolerant computing and design automation as well as on testing will convince the reader of that. But unfortunately these achievements have not been entire ly reflected in the textbooks, so that there seems to be a gap for the new researcher who already has the basic knowledge and wants to begin research in this area. As a remedy for this deficiency, this book is intended for begin ners, especially graduate students, as a textbook which will lead them to the frontier of some branches of the fault-tolerant computing field. The first chapter introduces the four-valued logic B4 and its applica tions. In 1966 Roth first proposed this four-valued logic as a technique to generate tests for logical circuits, but this work did not concern the mathe matical basis of B4 itself.

The Evolution of Fault-Tolerant Computing

ISBN: 3709188717
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 467
Book Description
For the editors of this book, as well as for many other researchers in the area of fault-tolerant computing, Dr. William Caswell Carter is one of the key figures in the formation and development of this important field. We felt that the IFIP Working Group 10.4 at Baden, Austria, in June 1986, which coincided with an important step in Bill's career, was an appropriate occasion to honor Bill's contributions and achievements by organizing a one day "Symposium on the Evolution of Fault-Tolerant Computing" in the honor of William C. Carter. The Symposium, held on June 30, 1986, brought together a group of eminent scientists from all over the world to discuss the evolu tion, the state of the art, and the future perspectives of the field of fault-tolerant computing. Historic developments in academia and industry were presented by individuals who themselves have actively been involved in bringing them about. The Symposium proved to be a unique historic event and these Proceedings, which contain the final versions of the papers presented at Baden, are an authentic reference document.
