Gene libraries have been added to Artificial Immune Systems in analogy to biological immune systems, but to date no careful study of their effect has been made. This work investig...
The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
Abstract. We first consider adaptive serial diagnosis for multiprocessor systems. We present an adaptive diagnosis algorithm using N + t − 1 tests, which is the smallest possibl...
Some classes of real-time systems function in environments which cannot be modeled with static approaches. In such environments, the arrival rates of events which drive transient ...
