  • The arrangement graph, which is a viable interconnection scheme for parallel and distributed systems, has been proposed as an attactive altemative to the n-cube. However, A fault tolerant design model which is well suitable for the arrangement graph doesn't has been proposd until recently, but fault tolerant design modelsfor many schemes have been proposed ina large number of paper. So, our paper presents a new fault tolerant design technique suited for the arrangement graph. To maintains the previous structures when it ocurs a fault in the current processing, the scheme properly sugbstitutes a fault-componnent into the existing structures by adding a spare component. the first of all, it converts arrangement graph into a circulant graph using the hamiltonian property and then uses automorphism of circulant graph to tolerate faults. Also, We optimize the cost of rate fault tolerant architectures by adding exactly k spare processor while tolerating up to k processor and minimizing the maximum number of limks per processor. Specially, we proposes a new techniue to minimize the maximum number of links.

  • Reliability is an important issue in cascaded H-bridge converters (CHB converters) because they use a high number of power semiconductors. A faulty power cell in a CHB converter can potentially lead to expensive downtime and great losses on the consumer side. With a fault-tolerant control strategy, operation can continue with the undamaged cells; thus increasing the reliability of the system. In this paper, the operating principles and the control method for a CHB multilevel rectifier are introduced. The influence of various faults on the CHB converter is investigated. The method of fault diagnosis and the bypassing of failed cells are explained. A fault-tolerant protection strategy is proposed to achieve redundancy in the CHB rectifier. The redundant H-bridge concept helps to deal with device failures and to increase system reliability. Simulation results verify the performance of the proposed strategy.

  • Current CORBA has been suggested a solution for complexity of software in distributed environment. But it can't provide reliability about data transfer. For instance, CORBA can't provide object to client when the network are unstable or congested. In an existing CORBA, client has to wait when there is congestion between client and object implementation while client get a service from object implementation. So In this paper, we propose Fault-Tolerant CORBA Service (FTS) which has an intelligent redirection about an object that client requests. Moreover, we designed and implemented Fault-Tolerant Service to provide reliability by extending existing CORBA ORB. Therefore it provides reliable connection throughout the proposed Fault-Tolerant Service.

  • This paper addresses the robust fault tolerant controller design problems of static output systems with disturbance. The fault is expressed by the abrupt chattering of system parameters. The design conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities and linear matrix equalities. An illustrative example is provided to verify performances of the proposed controller.

  • This paper presents an adaptive feedback based actuator fault detection and tolerant control algorithms for longitudinal functional safety of autonomous driving. In order to ensure the functional safety of autonomous vehicles, fault detection and tolerant control algorithms are needed for sensors and actuators used for autonomous driving. In this study, adaptive feedback control algorithm to compute the longitudinal acceleration for autonomous driving has been developed based on relationship function using states. The relationship function has been designed using feedback gains and error states for adaptation rule design. The coefficients in the relationship function have been estimated using recursive least square with multiple forgetting factors. The MIT rule has been adopted to design the adaptation rule for feedback gains online. The stability analysis has been conducted based on Lyapunov direct method. The longitudinal acceleration computed by adaptive control algorithm has been compared to the actual acceleration for fault detection of actuators used for longitudinal autonomous driving.

The PI controller is adopted as the control algorithm and the fault-tolerant control system is implemented by two single chip processors(MCS-96). Performances of the control system designed here have been shown via a simulation with application to a pitch channel autopilot.

  • As most application programs are more sophisticated and are adopted the distributed object technology, the object based distributed design became widespread since it supports portability and reusability. The approaches for fault-tolerant distributed computing are categorized into the active replica mechanism for mission-critical application programs and the passive replica mechanism for non mission-critical ones, when fault-tolerant facilities are added on. Our paper introduces the pros and drawbacks of several approaches for the add-on low-overhead fault-tolerant services by the surveys and shows the results of experiments for bench-mark models in order to demonstrate their performance.
