The quality of formal specifications and the circuits they are written for can be evaluated through checks such as vacuity and coverage. Both checks involve mutations to the specif...
To date, there is little evidence that modular reasoning about fault-tolerant systems can simplify the verification process in practice. We study this question using a prominent e...
A challenging issue in today's server systems is to transparently deal with failures and application-imposed requirements for continuous operation. In this paper we address t...
Transient faults are single-shot hardware errors caused by high energy particles from space, manufacturing defects, overheating, and other sources. Such faults can be devastating f...
The more the information technologies begin to be incorporated into the industrial productive fabric, the more complex it becomes to organise them. It is vital to implant proactiv...
