Common Mechanisms for Supporting Fault Tolerance in DSM and Message Passing S...
Backward error recovery involving checkpointing and restart of tasks is an important component of any system providing fault tolerance to applicati- ons distributed... -
Maximizing the Robustness of TDMA Networks with Applications to TTP/C
In this study we show how one can use Fault-Tolerant Units (FTU) in an optimal way to make a TDMA network robust to bursty random perturbations. We consider two... -
Fault Confinement Mechanisms of the CAN Protocol : Analysis and Improvements
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a broadcast bus with priority based access to the medium which has become a de-facto standard for data transmissio- n in automotive... -
Fault tolerant multiprocessor hard real-time scheduling for mobile robotics
In this thesis, we studied the fault-tolerant multiprocessor hard real-time scheduling of non-preemptive strict periodic tasks which could be combined with preemptive... -
Design of fault tolerant on board networks with priorities via selectors
We consider on-board networks in satellites interconnecting entering signals (inputs) to amplifiers (outputs). The connections are made via expensive switches with... -
Dynamic Resource Management in a Cluster for Scalability and High-Availability
In order to execute high performance applications on a cluster, it is highly desirable to provide distributed services that globally manage physical resources... -
A Two-Level Checkpoint Algorithm in a Highly-Available Parallel Single Level ...
A Parallel Single Level Store systems (PSLS) integrates a shared virtual memory and a parallel file system. Managing globally the data, they provide programmers of... -

On Arbitrary Waksman Networks and their Vulnerability
Motivated by problems in telecommunication satellites, we investigate rearrangeable permutation networks made of binary switches. A simple counting argument shows that... -
Consensus in Byzantine Asynchronous Systems
This paper studies the consensus problem in byzantine asynchronous distributed systems. In such systems, a process may stop communicating with other processes or may... -
Fault Tolerant Software Architectures
Coping explicitly with failures during the conception and the design of software development complicates significantly the designer's job. The design complexity leads... -
An Efficient and Scalable Approach for Implementing Fault Tolerant DSM Archit...
Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) architectures are attractive to execute high performance parallel applications. Made up of a large number of components, these... -

From Serializable to Causal Transactions for Collaborative Applications
Serializability is the traditional consistency criterion when shared objects are accessed concurrently. Its main drawback lies in the strong synchronization... -
Impact of fault prediction on checkpointing strategies
You should rather read RR-8237 and RR-8239 which cover the integrity of this report in a more precise fashion. -
Unified Model for Assessing Checkpointing Protocols at Extreme-Scale
In this article, we present a unified model for several well-known checkpoint/restart protocols. The proposed model is generic enough to encompass both extremes of the... -
On Modeling Consistent Checkpoints and the Domino Effect in Distributed Systems
Backward error recovery is one of the most used schemes to ensure fault-tolera- nce in distributed systems. It consists, upon the occurrence of a failure, in restoring...
