Algorithms implementing distributed shared memory (DSM) were developed for ensuring consistency. The performance of DSM algorithms is dependent on system and usage parameters. However, ensuring these algorithms to tolerate faults is a problem that needs to be researched. In this study, we proposed fault-tolerant scheme for DSM system and analyzed reliability and fault-tolerant overhead. Using our analysis, we can choose a proper algorithm for DSM on error prone environment.

Fault-tolerant gait planning in legged locomotion is to design gaits with which legged robots can maintain static stability and motion continuity against a failure in a leg. For planning a robust and deadlock-free fault-tolerant gait, kinematic constraints caused by a failed leg should be closely examined with respect to remaining mobility of the leg. In this paper, based on the authors's previous results, deadlock avoidance scheme for fault-tolerant gait planning is proposed for a hexapod robot walking over even terrain. The considered fault is a locked joint failure, which prevents a joint of a leg from moving and makes it locked in a known position. It is shown that for guaranteeing the existence of the previously proposed fault-tolerant tripod gait of a hexapod robot, the configuration of the failed leg must be within a range of kinematic constraints. Then, for coping with failure situations where the existence condition is not satisfied, the previous fault-tolerant tripod gait is improved by including the adjustment of the foot trajectory. The foot trajectory adjustment procedure is analytically derived to show that it can help the fault-tolerant gait avoid deadlock resulting from the kinematic constraint and does not make any harmful effect on gait mobility. The post-failure walking problem of a hexapod robot with the normal tripod gait is addressed as a case study to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The advent of very large scale integration(VLSI) has had a tremendous impact on the design of fault-tolerant circuits and systems. The increasing density, decreasing power consumption, and decreasing costs of integrated circuits, due in part to VLSI, have made it possible and practical to implement the redundancy approaches used in fault-tolerant computing. The purpose of this paper is to study the many aspects of designing fault-tolerant systems in a VLSI environment. First, we expound upon the opportunities and problemes presented by VLSI technology. Second, we consider in detail the importance of design mistakes, common-mode failures, and transient faults in VLSI. Finally, we examine the techniques available to implement redundancy using VLSI and the problems associated with these techniques.

A fault-tolerant system should have a high availability and high reliability to maintain a given system stable against sudden faults in the system. In this paper, we propose a new types of fault tolerant system based on a fault detection bus. The fault detection bus is designed and implemented to detect any errors by comparing event-output signals from two processor modules. It employs the hot standby sparing fault detection method〔1〕 to provide continuity of services even if a system fault occurs. The prototype fault tolerant system is currently being implemented on a management system with two processor modules.

This paper presents a systematic design methodology for fault tolerant controller against a fault in actuators and sensors of linear stochastic systems with uncertainties. The scheme is based on fault detection and diagnosis(isolation and estimation) using a bank of robust two-stage Kalman filters, and accommodation of the actuator fault by eigenstructure assignment and immediate compensation of the sensor's faulty measurement. In order to clarify the fault feature in test statistics of residual, noise reduction method is given by multi-scale discrete wavelet transform. The effectiveness of our approach Is shown via simulations for a VTOL(vertical take-off and landing) aircraft subjected to parameter variations, external disturbances, process and sensor noises.

A controller and sensor fault tolerant system jot a steam generator is designed with fuzzy logic. A structure of the : proposed fault tolerant redundant system is composed of a supervisor and two fuzzy weighting modulators. A supervisor alternatively checks a controlled and a sensor induced performances to identify Which Part, a controller or a sensor, is faulty. In order to analyze controller induced performance both an error and a charge in error of the system output an chosen as fuzzy variables. The fuzzy logic jot a sensor induced performance uses two variables : a deviation between two sensor outputs and its frequency, Fuzzy weighting modulator generates an output signal compensated for faulty input signal. Simulations show that the : proposed fault tolerant control scheme jot a steam generator regulates welt water level by suppressing fault effect of either controllers or sensors. Therefore through duplicating sensors and controllers with the proposed fault tolerant scheme, both a reliability of a steam generator control and sensor system and that of a power plant increase even mote.

본 논문에서는 자동화설비에서 가장 많이 사용되는 근접센서와 실린더를 기준으로 두 가지 모델을 적용하여 "고장허용 시스템 구축"에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. Free Flow 컨베이어 상에서 센서의 고장발생 시 가상센서모드 (Virtual Sensor Mode)로 전환되어 정상동작 하는 것을 시뮬레이션을 통해 구현을 하였으며, 실린더의 내압(압력강하)을 이용하여 실린더의 동작 시 부하에 따른 아날로그 데이터변화를 확인함으로써 고장허용 시스템을 다양하게 적용할 수 있는 토대를 마련하였다. 이러한 방법은 실린더의 수명예상은 물론 Grease 주입예상시기와 실린더의 불량유무판단 등 개발자의 능력에 따라 여러 가지 응용이 가능할 것이라 생각된다.

A real-time operating system has focused primary on techniques to minimize processing time, with a secondary emphasis on system reliability issues. Conversely, fault-tolerant system has concentrated on using recourse and information redundancy to maximize the availability and reliability of the system, with a lesser emphasis on performance. We have developed a fault-tolerant and real-time operations system which support a powerful concurrent runtime environment under the above requirements. In this paper, we present an overview of real-time systems, design and implementation of a duplex architecture using advanced concepts and technologies such as fast " fault detection", "fault isolation" and "fault recovery" Because the duplex architecture has two dentical hardware elements and has several recovery steps and hierarchy to facilitate a fast recovery which must be proceeded by a prompt fault detection and isolation. Thus it makes possible to minimize the overhead of the systems including hardware and software and guarantee the service continuity of he systems.

CORBA 환경에서 지속적이고 안정적인 객체 서비스틀 제공하기 위해 기존 CORBA에 고장 감내 기능을 부여한 Fault-Tolerant CORBA가 필요하게 되었다. Orbix+ISIS, Eletra 등이 CORBA에서 고장 감내 기능을 제공하고 있으며 OMG에서도 Fault-Tolerant CORBA 규격에 관한 작업을 진행 중이다. CORBA 환경에서 고장 감내 기능을 ORB 에 추가하는 방법은 통합 방식(Integration Approach), 서비스 방식(Service Approach), 인터셉트 방식(Intercept Approach) 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 OMG에서 작업 중인 Fault-Tolerant CORBA 규격을 기본으로 하여 통합 방식과 서비스 방식을 결합하여 클라이언트 응용에게 투명하게 고장 감내 기능을 제공하는 Fault-Tolerant CORBA 구조를 설계하였다.
