the multi computers operated in harsh environments should be designed to guarantee normal operations in the presence of the component faults. One solution for this is a fault-tolerant routing. In the paper, we consider n-dimensional meshed network for the basic topology and propose a simple fault-tolerant routing algorithm that can transfer messages to their destination as desired in the presence of some component faults. the built algorithms basically adopts a WormHole(WH) routing method and uses the virtual channels sharing a physical channel for deadlock-freedom. Consequently, we show that the suggested algorithm has a higher performance than the X-Y routing algorithm through simulation results.

In wireless sensor networks, a fault-tolerant scheme that detects the failure of sensor nodes and improves the reliability of collected information must be considered. Resource-constraint sensor nodes expose vulnerability and cannot use existing checkpointing schemes that do not consider a feature of sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant scheme for clustering routing protocols that support the recovery of a head node.

Hypercube has a capability of fault-tolerance and regularity, which is easy to develop an algorithm. Many algorithms have been developed as an efficient fault-tolerance routing algorithm using hypercube. Among these algorithms, a method which use safe and unsafe concept was developed by Masuyama. Masuyama suggested an enhanced algorithm that take advantage of unsafe-safe concept. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that uses the unsafe, safe concept and modify Masuyama's algorithm. Using simulator we compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with existing algorithms.

In this paper, we present a high-performance fault-tolerant switching networks using a deflection self-routing scheme, and present fault-diagnosis method for the network. We use the facts: 1) Each stage of the Banyan network is arrayed as the sequences of a Cyclic group of SEs. 2) There is the homomorphism between adjacent stages from a view of self-routing, so that all of each Cyclic group is the subgroup of the Cyclic group in the next stage, and there are factor groups due to such subgroup and homomorphism. We provide high-performance fault-tolerant switching networks of which the all links including augmented links are used as the alternate links detouring faulty links. We also present the fault diagnosis scheme for the proposed switching network that provide multiple paths for each input-output pair.

In this paper, we proposed and analyzed a new class of irregular fault-tolerant multistage interconnection network named as Extended-QT(Quad Tree) network. E-QT network is extended QT network. A unique path MIN usually is low hardware complexity and control algorithm. So we proposes a class of multipath MIN which are obtained by adding self-loop auxiliary links at the a1l stages in QT(Quad Tree) networks so that they can provide more paths between each source-destination pair. The routing of proposed structure is adaptived and is based by a routing tag. Starting with the routing tag for the minimum path between a given source-destination pair, routing algorithm uses a set of rules to select switches and modify routing tag. Trying the self-loop auxiliary link when both of the output links are unavailable. If the trying is failure, the packet discard. In simulation, an index of performance called reliability and cost are introduced to compare different kinds of MINs. As a result, the prouosed MINs have better capacity than 07 networks.

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.

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.

A crossed incoplete hypercube structure is based on previous crossed hypercube structure that reduces the diameter about 50% and has the same complexity with general hypercube and is able to expand to any number of nodes. In this study, we proposed a fault-tolerant adaptive routing scheme and broadcasting scheme. Fault-tolerant adaptive routing scheme is resilient to system faults. And performance evaluation is executed on the proposed sturcture. It is enhanced about 30%.

This paper proposes a new fault-tolerant technique for bitonic sorting networks which can be used for designing ATM switches based on Batcher-Banyan network. The main goal in this paper is to design a cost-effective fault-tolerant bitonic sorting network. In order to recover a fault, additional comparison elements and additional links are used. A Dynamic Redundant Bitonic Sorting (DRBS) network is based on the Dynamic Redundant network and can be constructed with several different variations. The proposed fault-tolerant sorting network offers high fault-tolerance; low time delays; maintenance of cell sequence; simple routing; and regularity and modularity.

In this paper, we propose a new fault tolerant ATM Switch and a new adaptive self-routing scheme used to make the switch to be fault tolerant. It can provide more multiple paths than the related previous switches between an input/output pair of a switch by adding extra links between switching elements in the same stage and extending the self-routing scheme of the Banyan network. Our routing scheme is as simple as that of the banyan network, which is based on the topological relationships among the switching elements (SE’s) that render a packet to the same destination with the regular self-routing. These topological properties of the Banyan network are discovered in this paper. We present an algebraic proof to show the correctness of this scheme, and an analytic reliability analysis to provide quantitative comparisons with other switches, which shows that the new switch is more cost effective than the Banyan network and other augmented MIN’s in terms of the reliability.
