Rare Event Simulation for Highly Dependable Systems with Fast Repairs
Stochastic model checking has been used recently to assess, among others, dependability measures for a variety of systems. However, the employed numerical methods, as, e.g., suppor...

Evaluating Test Suites and Adequacy Criteria Using Simulation-Based Models of Distributed Systems
Test adequacy criteria provide the engineer with guidance on how to populate test suites. While adequacy criteria have long been a focus of research, existing testing methods do no...

Evaluation of fault-tolerant policies using simulation
— Various mechanisms for fault-tolerance (FT) are used today in order to reduce the impact of failures on application execution. In the case of system failure, standard FT mechan...

Architecture-Level Soft Error Analysis: Examining the Limits of Common Assumptions
This paper concerns the validity of a widely used method for estimating the architecture-level mean time to failure (MTTF) due to soft errors. The method first calculates the fai...
