  • Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have many potential applications and unique challenges. Some problems of WSNs are: severe resources' constraints, low reliability and fault tolerant, low throughput, low scalability, low Quality of Service (QoS) and insecure operational environments. One significant solution against mentioned problems is hierarchical and clustering-based multipath routing. But, existent algorithms have many weaknesses such as: high overhead, security vulnerabilities, address-centric, low-scalability, permanent usage of optimal paths and severe resources' consumption. As a result, this paper is proposed an energy-aware, congestion-aware, location-based, data-centric, scalable, hierarchical and clustering-based multipath routing algorithm based on Numerical Taxonomy technique for homogenous WSNs. Finally, performance of the proposed algorithm has been compared with performance of LEACH routing algorithm; results of simulations and statistical-mathematical analysis are showing the proposed algorithm has been improved in terms of parameters like balanced resources' consumption such as energy and bandwidth, throughput, reliability and fault tolerant, accuracy, QoS such as average rate of packet delivery and WSNs' lifetime.

  • This paper proposes a new artificial immune approach to on-line hardware test which is the most indispensable technique for fault tolerant hardware. A novel algorithm of generating tolerance conditions is suggested based on the principle of the antibody diversity. Tolerance conditions in artificial immune system correspond to the antibody in biological immune system. In addition, antigen presenting cell (APC) is realized by Quine-McCluskey method in this algorithm and tolerance conditions are generated through GA (Genetic Algorithm). The suggested method is applied to the on-line monitoring of a typical FSM (a decade counter) and its effectiveness is demonstrated by the computer simulation.

  • The rapid growth of sense-and-respond applications and the emerging cloud computing model present a new challenge: providing publish/subscribe middleware as a scalable and elastic cloud service. The publish/subscribe interaction model is a promising solution for scalable data dissemination over wide-area networks. In addition, there have been some work on the publish/subscribe messaging paradigm that guarantees reliability and availability in the face of node and link failures. These publish/subscribe systems are commonly used in information-centric networks and edge-fog-cloud infrastructures for IoT. The IoT has an edge-fog cloud infrastructure to efficiently process massive amounts of sensing data collected from the surrounding environment. In this paper. we propose a quorum-based hierarchical fault-tolerant publish/subscribe systems (QHFPS) to enable reliable delivery of messages in the presence of link and node failures. The QHFPS efficiently distributes IoT messages to the publish/subscribe brokers in fog overlay layers on the basis of proposing extended stepped grid (xS-grid) quorum for providing tolerance when faced with node failures and network partitions. We evaluate the performance of QHFPS in three aspects: number of transmitted Pub/Sub messages, average subscription delay, and subscritpion delivery rate with an analytical model.

  • A wireless ad hoc network is a decentralized wireless network. The network is ad hoc because each node is willing to forward data for other nodes, and so the determination of which nodes forward data is made dynamically based on the network connectivity. In this paper, we proposed new route maintenance algorithm to improve the efficiency and effective in order to reach destination node. In this algorithm we improve existing route maintenance in Dynamic Source Routing protocol, to improve the algorithm we make a new message we call Emergency Message (EMM). The emergency message used by the node moved to provide information of fault detection.

  • In this paper, we consider the hamiltonian properties of m$\times$n (m$\geq$2, n$\geq$3) mesh networks with two wraparound edges on the first row and last row, called M$_2$(m, n), in the presence of a faulty node or link. We prove that M$_2$(m, n) with odd n is hamiltonian-connected and 1-fault hamiltonian. In addition, we prove that M$_2$(m, n) with even n is strongly hamiltonian laceable and 1-vertex fault tolerant strongly hamiltonian laceable.

  • 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.

  • This paper proposes fault tolerant control laws using sliding mode control and adaptation laws for a satellite with reaction wheel faults. Considering system parameter errors and faults uncertainties in the dynamics of satellite, the control laws were designed. It was assumed that only reaction wheel failures occurred as faults. The reaction wheel faults were reflected in the multiply form. Because the proposed control laws satisfy the Lyapunov stability theorem, the stability is guaranteed. Through computer simulation, it was assured that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller has a better performance than the existing sliding mode controller under unstable angular rates.
