Download or read book Fault-tolerant Systems written by Israel Koren and published by Morgan Kaufmann. This book was released on 2007 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many applications in which the reliability of the overall system must be far higher than the reliability of its individual components. In such cases, designers devise mechanisms and architectures that allow the system to either completely mask the effects of a component failure or recover from it so quickly that the application is not seriously affected. This is the work of fault-tolerant designers and their work is increasingly important and complex not only because of the increasing number of “mission critical? applications, but also because the diminishing reliability of hardware means that even systems for non-critical applications will need to be designed with fault-tolerance in mind. Reflecting the real-world challenges faced by designers of these systems, this book addresses fault tolerance design with a systems approach to both hardware and software. No other text on the market takes this approach, nor offers the comprehensive and up-to-date treatment Koren and Krishna provide.

Book Synopsis Fault-Tolerant Message-Passing Distributed Systems by : Michel Raynal
Download or read book Fault-Tolerant Message-Passing Distributed Systems written by Michel Raynal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-08 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the most important fault-tolerant distributed programming abstractions and their associated distributed algorithms, in particular in terms of reliable communication and agreement, which lie at the heart of nearly all distributed applications. These programming abstractions, distributed objects or services, allow software designers and programmers to cope with asynchrony and the most important types of failures such as process crashes, message losses, and malicious behaviors of computing entities, widely known under the term "Byzantine fault-tolerance". The author introduces these notions in an incremental manner, starting from a clear specification, followed by algorithms which are first described intuitively and then proved correct. The book also presents impossibility results in classic distributed computing models, along with strategies, mainly failure detectors and randomization, that allow us to enrich these models. In this sense, the book constitutes an introduction to the science of distributed computing, with applications in all domains of distributed systems, such as cloud computing and blockchains. Each chapter comes with exercises and bibliographic notes to help the reader approach, understand, and master the fascinating field of fault-tolerant distributed computing.

Book excerpt: 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.

Book Synopsis Fault Tolerant Computer Architecture by : Daniel Sorin
Download or read book Fault Tolerant Computer Architecture written by Daniel Sorin and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2009-07-08 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, most computer architects have pursued one primary goal: performance. Architects have translated the ever-increasing abundance of ever-faster transistors provided by Moore's law into remarkable increases in performance. Recently, however, the bounty provided by Moore's law has been accompanied by several challenges that have arisen as devices have become smaller, including a decrease in dependability due to physical faults. In this book, we focus on the dependability challenge and the fault tolerance solutions that architects are developing to overcome it. The two main purposes of this book are to explore the key ideas in fault-tolerant computer architecture and to present the current state-of-the-art - over approximately the past 10 years - in academia and industry.

Book Synopsis Communication and Agreement Abstractions for Fault-Tolerant Asynchronous Distributed Systems by : Michel Raynal
Download or read book Communication and Agreement Abstractions for Fault-Tolerant Asynchronous Distributed Systems written by Michel Raynal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding distributed computing is not an easy task. This is due to the many facets of uncertainty one has to cope with and master in order to produce correct distributed software. Considering the uncertainty created by asynchrony and process crash failures in the context of message-passing systems, the book focuses on the main abstractions that one has to understand and master in order to be able to produce software with guaranteed properties. These fundamental abstractions are communication abstractions that allow the processes to communicate consistently (namely the register abstraction and the reliable broadcast abstraction), and the consensus agreement abstractions that allows them to cooperate despite failures. As they give a precise meaning to the words "communicate" and "agree" despite asynchrony and failures, these abstractions allow distributed programs to be designed with properties that can be stated and proved. Impossibility results are associated with these abstractions. Hence, in order to circumvent these impossibilities, the book relies on the failure detector approach, and, consequently, that approach to fault-tolerance is central to the book. Table of Contents: List of Figures / The Atomic Register Abstraction / Implementing an Atomic Register in a Crash-Prone Asynchronous System / The Uniform Reliable Broadcast Abstraction / Uniform Reliable Broadcast Abstraction Despite Unreliable Channels / The Consensus Abstraction / Consensus Algorithms for Asynchronous Systems Enriched with Various Failure Detectors / Constructing Failure Detectors

Book Synopsis Breaking the Availability Barrier by : Bill Highleyman
Download or read book Breaking the Availability Barrier written by Bill Highleyman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2003-12-26 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As our daily lives and corporate well-being become more dependent upon computers, system reliability grows increasingly important. No longer are frequent system outages acceptable. In many cases, failure intervals must now be measured in centuries. Even current fault-tolerant computing systems will fail once every five or ten years. This book is the first in a three-part series on active/active systems. It describes techniques that can be used today for extending system failure times from years to centuries, often at little or no additional cost. The techniques described include splitting a large system into smaller, cooperating independent nodes. Copies of the application's database are distributed across the nodes. It is shown that these techniques significantly reduce the number of system failure modes and increase the level of sparing. As a result, the loss of a single node's capacity occurs far less frequently than the loss of all capacity when the equivalent monolithic system fails. Furthermore, the loss of more than one node's worth of capacity is almost never. Central to these techniques is the requirement that all database copies that are distributed across the network must be kept in synchronism. Several methods available today for maintaining synchronism are described. They include asynchronous data replication, synchronous data replication, and network transactions.
Book Synopsis Fault-tolerant Agreement in Synchronous Message-passing Systems by : Michel Raynal
Download or read book Fault-tolerant Agreement in Synchronous Message-passing Systems written by Michel Raynal and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2010 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book focuses on the way to cope with the uncertainty created by process failures (crash, omission failures and Byzantine behavior) in synchronous message-passing systems (i.e., systems whose progress is governed by the passage of time). To that end, the book considers fundamental problems that distributed synchronous processes have to solve. These fundamental problems concern agreement among processes (if processes are unable to agree in one way or another in presence of failures, no non-trivial problem can be solved). They are consensus, interactive consistency, k-set agreement and non-blocking atomic commit. Being able to solve these basic problems efficiently with provable guarantees allows applications designers to give a precise meaning to the words "cooperate" and "agree" despite failures, and write distributed synchronous programs with properties that can be stated and proved. Hence, the aim of the book is to present a comprehensive view of agreement problems, algorithms that solve them and associated computability bounds in synchronous message-passing distributed systems. Table of Contents: List of Figures / Synchronous Model, Failure Models, and Agreement Problems / Consensus and Interactive Consistency in the Crash Failure Model / Expedite Decision in the Crash Failure Model / Simultaneous Consensus Despite Crash Failures / From Consensus to k-Set Agreement / Non-Blocking Atomic Commit in Presence of Crash Failures / k-Set Agreement Despite Omission Failures / Consensus Despite Byzantine Failures / Byzantine Consensus in Enriched Models
