Failure Diagnosis for Datacenter Applications
Fast and accurate failure diagnosis remains a major challenge for datacenter operators. Current datacenter applications are increasingly architected around loosely-coupled modular components: each component can scale and evolve independently. However, when application failures occur, they become …

Gut failure: Diagnosis and management
… Inadequate gut function (IGF) or intestinal failure (IF) is common, particularly in surgical patients and the critically ill. It is difficult to measure objectively, and as a consequence its effects on outcome are contentious and treatment options are limited. Because of the gut's numerous …

Failure diagnosis in distributed systems
Failures in computing systems are unavoidable. Therefore, it is important to detect and diagnose failures early to improve the reliability of systems. In this dissertation, new approaches on root-cause diagnosis for two notorious types of failures in distributed systems are introduced. This …

Synchronous failure diagnosis of discrete-event systems
… components leads to high computational costs for failure diagnosis techniques based on the global model. In this work, a new approach for the failure diagnosis of discrete event systems is introduced. The method is based on the computation of a Petri net diagnoser, called synchronized Petri net …

Systems, models and algorithms for failure diagnosis in networked infrastructure
Failure incidents in networked systems such as datacenters, private or public cloud environments, WAN, and enterprise networks lead to significant downtime and violations of service-level agreements, incurring large financial losses. To mitigate failures quickly, operators seek to implement …

Improving failure diagnosis via better design and analysis of log messages
… still fail in the production environment. Once a failure occurs in production systems, it is important for the vendors to trouble-shoot it as quickly as possible since these failures directly affect the customers. Consequently vendors typically invest significant amounts of resources in production …

An incremental curative learning approach for planning with incorrect domain theories
… domain theory problem have relied on diagnosing failures to determine fixes to the domain theory to prevent the failures in the future. However, perfect failure diagnosis is itself an intractable problem, and preventive learners are subject to the problem of faulty fixes due to incorrect failure …

Breaking things so you don’t have to: risk assessment and failure prediction for cyber-physical AI
… the system's design to be more robust to the failures they uncover. In this thesis, I develop a suite of methods that accelerate verification and design automation of robots and other autonomous systems by using program analysis tools such as automatic differentiation and probabilistic …

The transition from normal to emergency system states: An examination of variables that generate active learning among operators
A failure by human operators to take an active monitoring role in complex automated systems has resulted in operators who are unable to make a transition from normal scanning behavior to the detection, diagnosis, and correction of system failures during a malfunction. Passive monitoring is common …

Quality of Life, Hope, Social Support, and Self-Care in Heart Failure Patients
Heart failure is a significant, chronic health problem. Much is known about physiological factors related to this condition. Less is known about the psychosocial aspects that influence disease risk, progression, and treatment. The purpose of this study was to describe the relationships between …

High-Strain Rate Tensile Characterization Of Graphite Platelet Reinforced Vinyl Ester Based Nanocomposites Using Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar
… tensile strain is measured using LOEG. Failure diagnosis using high-speed digital photography validates the viability of utilizing this indirect test method for characterizing the tensile properties of the candidate vinyl ester based nanocomposite system. Also, quasi-static indirect …

Addressing production run failures dynamically
… analysis, reports of highprofile production failures are still common. This dissertation proposes several run-time techniques to analyze and alleviate software failures dynamically, during production runs. The first technique is low overhead checkpoint, rollback, and re-execution. By allowing …

Transitioning from hospital to reality: Do newly diagnosed heart failure patients benefit from a Heart Failure Clinical Nurse Specialist providing focused education at discharge?
BACKGROUND Heart failure is a complex and progressive condition in which cardiac muscle or the myocardium is impaired in its ability to maintain optimal cardiac output to provide sufficient oxygenated blood to meet the metabolic requirements of the body. Heart failure is one of the most common …

The Morbidity & Mortality of Prevalent Heart Failure
… consecutive patients from the LLUMC heart failure clinic who were enrolled in the study from January to July 2006 and were followed up through the end of December 2010. The treatment policy at the clinic was to uptitrate dosages of beta-adrenergic blockade (β-blockers), …
