A proactive handling of faults requires that the risk of upcoming failures is continuously assessed. One of the promising approaches is online failure prediction, which means that...
In ad hoc mobile wireless networks, energy consumption is an important issue as most mobile hosts operate on limited battery resources. Existing models for evaluating the energy co...
Performance tuning is an important and time consuming task which may have to be repeated for each new application and platform. Although iterative optimisation can automate this p...
The shrinking processor feature size, lower threshold voltage and increasing clock frequency make modern processors highly vulnerable to transient faults. Architectural Vulnerabil...
—Coupling in software applications is often used as an indicator of external quality attributes such as fault-proneness. In fact, the correlation of coupling metrics and faults i...
