  • The failure rate functions between successive failures are of concatenated form. We allow the parameters of failure rate function change after a certain failure and its fixing. We confine out attention to a model wherein the interfailure times are described by its failure rate function. We suggest an adaptive failure rate function with a change-point under the assumption that interfailure times are record value statistics from a Weibull distribution. The proposed model will be applied through a practical example of software failure data.

  • The separation of control plane and data plane in Software Defined Network (SDN) makes it flexible to control the network behavior, while also causes some inconveniences to the link failure recovery due to the delay between fail point and the controller. To avoid delay and packet loss, pre-defined backup paths are used to reroute the disrupted flows when failure occurs. However, it may introduce large overhead to build and maintain these backup paths and is hard to dynamically construct backup paths according to the network status so as to avoid congestion during rerouting process. In order to realize congestion aware fast link failure recovery, this paper proposes a novel method which installs multi backup paths for every link via source routing and per-hop-tags and spread flows into different paths at fail point to avoid congestion. We carry out experiments and simulations to evaluate the performance of the method and the results demonstrate that our method can achieve congestion aware fast link failure recovery in SDN with a very low overhead.

  • This study involves a Common Cause Failure (CCF) problem on the ultra-high reliability required system development such as war game operations, nuclear power control, air traffic control, space shuttle missions, and large scale network communication system. The system situation problems are defined according to CCF, reliability and system fault identifications for the development cast verifications in the multi-version redundant software system. Then, CCF analysis of redundant system, system principles and statistical dependence are also described. This validation oh the CCF in the human software interaction system will notify software engineers to conceive what really is CCF contribution factor, not only the internal but the external ones.

  • Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) are useful for determining the software release date or additional testing efforts by using software failure data. It is not appropriate for a SRGM to apply to all software. And besides a large number of SRGMs have already been proposed to estimate software reliability measures. Therefore selection of an optimal SRGM for use in a particular case has been an important issue. The existing methods for selecting a SRGM use the entire collected failure data. However, initial failure data may not affect the future failure occurrence and, in some cases, it results in the distorted result when evaluating the future failure. In this paper, we suggest a method for selecting a SRGM based on the evaluation goodness-of-fit using partial data. Our approach uses partial data except for inordinately unstable failure data in the entire failure data. We will find a portion of data used to select a SRGM through the comparison between the entire failure data and the partial failure data excluded the initial failure data with respect to the predictive ability of future failures. To justify our approach this paper shows that the predictive ability of future failures using partial data is more accurate than using the entire failure data with the real collected failure data.

  • Mission Computer performs important role both managing a whole system and dealing with a specific mission in avionics system. In general, the fault of SPOF(Single Point Of Failure) in unity system can lead to failure of whole system. It can cause a failure of a mission and also can threaten to the life of the pilot. So, in this paper, we design the HA(High-availability) system so that dealing with the failure. And we use HA software like Heartbeat, Fake, DRBD and Bonding to managing HA system.
