Fault-Tolerant Scheduling and Broadcast Problems

Abstract

dc:description

Incorporating fault-tolerance into a computer system involves redundancy and therefore increases the system's cost. An investigation into this cost is initiated by considering the application of fault-tolerance to two standard problems: scheduling responses to periodic requests in a real-time system and broadcasting messages on communication networks. The faults considered in these problems result from timing errors and communication line failures, respectively. For both problems fault-tolerant techniques are incorporated into the system and various costs are analyzed.
