로봇 서비스 분야가 점점 확대됨에 따라, 신뢰할 수 있는 로봇개발을 위한 방안연구가 시급하다. 고장감내에 대한 연구는 신뢰도를 높이기 위한 연구분야 중에서 가장 주목받는 분야중 하나이다. 오랜 기간 로봇에 고장감내 특성을 적용하기 위한 다양한 연구들이 진행되었지만, 대부분의 연구들이 제한된 환경을 대상으로 하는 단일 기법에 초첨을 맞추고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 기법들을 기반으로 신뢰도 높은 로봇을 개발할 수 있기 위해서는, 환경에 따라 적합한 고장감내기법들에 대한 복합적인 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 로봇이 대상으로 하는 환경과 분야에 적합한 고장감내기법들을 보다 효과적이고 정확하게 선정할 수 있는 시스템적 접근방법을 제안한다.

The mission-critical computer for air defense has to maintain its operation without any fault for a long mission time and is required to implement at low cost. Now the reliability of the mission critical-computer using Active Sparing Redundancy fault-tolerant technique is inferior to that of the computer using TMR technique. So in this paper are proposed Extended ASR(EASR) technique that provides higher reliability than that of the computer using TMR technique. The fault-tolerant performance of the implemented mission-critical computer is proven through reliability analysis and numbers of fault recovery test. Also, the reliability of the mission-critical computer using EASR technique is compared with those of computer using ASR and TMR techniques. EASR technique is very suitable to the mission-critical computer.

The mission-critical engagement control computer for air defense has to maintain its operation without any fault for a long mission time. The mission performed by large-scale and complex embedded software is extremely critical in terms of dependability and safety of computer system, and it is very important that engagement control computer has high reliability. The engagement control computer was implemented using four processors. The distributed computer composed of four processors quarantees the dependability and safety, and ASR fault-tolerant technique applied to each processor guarantees the reliability. In this paper, the mechanism and performance of ASR fault-tolerant technique are analysed. And MTBF, reliability, availability, and cost-effectiveness for ASR, DMR and TMR techniques applied to the engagement control computer are analysed. The mission-critical engagement control computer using software-based ASR fault-tolerant technique provides high reliability and fast recovery time at a low cost. The mission reliability of the engagement control computer using ASR technique in 4 processors board is almost same the reliability of the computer using TMR technique in 6 processors board. ASR technique is most suitable to the mission-critical engagement control computer.

본 논문에서는 메시지 전달을 기반으로 하는 병렬 분산 시스템에 고장 감내 기능을 추가하기 위한 고장 감내 기법과, 고장 복구에 따른 프로세서들간의 일관성 유지방법을 제안하였다. 메시지 전달을 기반으로 하는 병렬 컴퓨터 시스템상에서 응용 프로그램들은 수많은 노드들에 분산 배치되어 수행이 되는데, 그중 어느 한 노드 또는 작업 중인 프로세서가 고장을 일으킨다면 이로 인하여 전체 응용 프로그램이 중단 될 것이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 고장 감내 기능 추가가 필요하며, 그 방법으로서 동일한 작업을 수행하는 프로세서를 서로 다른 노드상에 이중화하여 하나의 프로세서에 고장이 발생하더라도 계속 작업중인 예비 프로세서를 이용함으로써 전체 응용 프로그램이 아무런 영향을 받지 않도록 하였다. 그리고 이를 MPI상에 서브 모듈로써 설계하고 구현하였다.

This paper is a study related to fault tolerant design based on PSTR using virtualization techniques. If the fault tolerant PSTR based on virtualization techniques is implemented the communication performance between primary and shadow will improves and monitoring function is easy to available about activities of primary and shadow. The legacy PSTR model is implemented in its hardware. The primary play a main role and shadow play a switched action when the errors occurrs in the primary. The switched action of shadow make it possible to restart the primary function newly. This paper implements fault tolerant primary-shadow model using virtualization techniques on the embedded environment.

Application software streaming is a virtualization technology that enables users to use applications without installation on her/his computer. With application streaming service, a client immediately starts and uses the application as if it were installed. The application can be executed while executable codes for the application may still be streamed. Since the software streaming is based on networks, its service is affected by network failures. Network failures may cause the streamed application to stop, and to make it worse, also the system may crash because executable codes for the application can't be streamed from the streaming server. Using the Pareto principle (80 vs. 20 rule), users can be served continuously with the minimum functions that are frequently used, pre-fetched and cached if we provide a more intelligent and fault-tolerant streaming technique. This paper proposes the concept and technique named Evergreen. Using the Evergreen technique, users can continue using the streamed application while a network failure occurs, although user can access only the streamed code. We also discuss the implementation of Evergreen technique in details.

The connectivity and edge-connectivity have been the prime deterministic measure of fault tolerance in multicomputer networks. These parameters have a problem that they do not differentiate the different types of disconnected graphs which result from removing the disconnecting vertices or disconnecting edges. To compensate for this shortcoming, one can utilize generalized measures of connectedness such as superconnectivity, toughness, scattering number, vertex-integrity, binding number, and restricted connectivity. In this paper, we analyze such deterministic measures of fault tolerance in recursive circulants and hypercubes, and compare them in terms of fault tolerance.

It is an important problem without system breaking. Like this, to make a computer system operate normally, various commercial fault tolerant techniques are used. Almost commercial products of fault tolerant system consume much cost. This paper proposes kernel hardening technique that are reducing panic using DLM modue in Linux USB driver. I experimented the design technique in Linux O.S. By the experiment, the suggesting technique which includes USB module with DLMis working well.

Fault tolerance is a crucial design for a mission-critical computer such as engagement control computer that has to maintain its operation for long mission time. In recent years, software fault-tolerant design is becoming important in terms of cost-effectiveness and high-efficiency. In this paper, we propose MPCMCC which is a model-based software component to implement fault tolerance in mission-critical computers. MPCMCC is a fault tolerance design that synchronizes shared data between two computers by using the one-way message-passing scheme which is easy to use and more stable than the shared memory scheme. In addition, MPCMCC can be easily reused for future work by employing the model based development methodology. We verified the functions of the software component and analyzed its performance in the simulation environment by using two mission-critical computers. The results show that MPCMCC is a suitable software component for fault tolerance in mission-critical computers.

Computer system to operate normally without interruption, is one of the important issues. Likewise, a computer system to operate without interruption, failure to endure a variety of techniques, development and commercial use is arranged. Most guards will take a lot of technique failure endure. In this paper on the Linux operating system, dynamic module (DLM) to connect using the USB device to use USB devices can cause the symptoms to reduce the kernel PANIC hadeuning technique for studying the kernel.
