  • 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.

  • Ubiquitous sensor network is the communication environment where sensor nodes move freely and construct network to get the services from the system. So, it does not need fixed infrastructure and can easily be placed in unaccessible regions like war or calamity area. Wireless sensor network protocol has self-organizing capability, need to adapt topology change flexibly and also has technique that sensor nodes work cooperatively, because network disconnection is frequently occurred due to the active mobility of sensor nodes. In this paper, we design a cluster based fault-tolerant routing protocol for the efficient topology construction and to guarantee stable data transmission in USN. The performance of the proposed protocol is evaluated by an analytic model.

  • Cognitive Radio (CR) has been recently proposed as a promising technology to remedy the problems of spectrum scarcity and spectrum underutilization by enabling unlicensed users to opportunistically utilize temporally unused licensed spectrums in a cautious manner. In Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks (CRAHNs), data routing is one of the most challenging tasks since the channel availability and node mobility are unpredictable. Moreover, the network performance is severely degraded due to large numbers of path failures. In this paper, we propose the Fault-Tolerant Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (FTCARP) to provide fast and efficient route recovery in presence of path failures during data delivery in CRAHNs. The protocol exploits the joint path and spectrum diversity to offer reliable communication and efficient spectrum usage over the networks. In the proposed protocol, a backup path is utilized in case a failure occurs over a primary transmission route. Different cause of a path failure will be handled by different route recovery mechanism. The protocol performance is compared with that of the Dual Diversity Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (D2CARP). The simulation results obviously prove that FTCARP outperforms D2CARP in terms of throughput, packet loss, end-to-end delay and jitter in the high path-failure rate CRAHNs.

  • Corrective control for asynchronous sequential machines is a novel automatic control theory that compensates illegal behavior or adverse effects of faults in the operation of existent asynchronous machines. In this paper, we propose a scheme of diagnosing and tolerating faults occurring to input channels of corrective control systems. The corrective controller can detect faults occurring in the input channel to the controlled machine, whereas those faults happening in the external input channel cannot be detected. The proposed scheme involves an outer operator which, upon receiving the state feedback, diagnoses a fault and sends an appropriate command signal to the controller for tolerating faults in the external input channel.

  • Living cells generate the cell cycle or apoptosis, depending on the course will be repeated. If an error occurs during this period of life in order to maintain the cells in the peripheral cells find the error portion. These cellular functions were applied to the system to simulate the circuit. Circuit implementation of the present study was constructed the redundant structure in order to found the error quickly. Self-repairing of digital systems as an advanced form of fault-tolerance has been increasingly receiving attention according as digital systems have been more and more complex and speed-up especially for urgent systems or those working on extreme environments such as deep sea and outer space. Simulating the process of cell differentiation algorithm was confirmed by the FPGA on the counter circuit. If an error occurs on the circuit where the error was quickly locate and repair. In this paper, we propose a novel self-repair architecture for fast and robust fault-recovery that can easily apply to real, complex digital systems. These Self-Repairing Algorithms make it possible for the application digital systems to be alive even though in very noisy and extreme environments.

  • This paper explains an error process for multimedia collaboration works with session management running on vehicle network environment. This system consists of an FDA and FRA. FDA is an agent that detects an error by hooking techniques for multimedia system based on vehicle network environment with session management. FRA is a system that is suitable for recovering software error for multimedia system with session management based on vehicle network environment. This paper describes only FRA. When multiple local sessions is opened, each local session manager sends information of participant to global session manager and take current information about session of processing in network.

  • Distributed systems offer environments for attaining high performance, fault-tolerance, information sharing, resource sharing, etc. But we cannot benefit from these potential advantages without suitable management of events/states occurring in distributed systems. These events and states can be symptoms for performance degradation, erroneous functions, suspicious activities, etc. and are subject to further analysis. To properly manage events/states, we need to be able to specify and efficiently detect these events/states. In this paper we first describe an event/state specification language and a centralized algorithm for detecting events/states specified with this language. Then we describe an algorithm for distributing an event/state detection task in a distributed system which is hierarchically organized. The algorithm consists of decomposing an event/state detection task into subtasks and allocation these subtasks to the proper nodes. We also explain a method to make the distributed detection fault-tolerant.

  • In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant QoS routing scheme based on interference awareness for providing both high throughput and minimum end-to-end delay for wireless sensor networks. With the proposed algorithm, it is feasible to find out the optimal transmission path between sensor nodes to the sink node by using cumulative path metric where real-time delivery, high energy efficiency and less interference are considered as in path selection. Finally, simulation results show that network throughput and delay can be improved by using the proposed routing scheme.

  • The proposed scheme schedules given real-time tasks so that energy consumption of multicore processors would be minimized while meeting tasks' deadline and tolerating a permanent fault based on the primary-backup task model. Whereas the previous methods minimize the overlapped time of a primary task and its backup task, the proposed scheme maximizes the overlapped time so as to decrease the core speed as much as possible. It is analytically verified that the proposed scheme minimizes the energy consumption. Also, the proposed scheme saves up to 77% energy consumption of the previous method through experimental performance evaluation.
