This paper presents a mechanism for dynamic reconfiguration of component-based applications and its fault tolerance strategy. The mechanism, named generic connector, allows compos...
—The FRIENDS system developed at LAAS-CNRS is a metalevel architecture providing libraries of metaobjects for fault tolerance, secure communication, and group-based distributed a...
Domain-partition (DP) model is a general model for reliability maximization problem under given redundancy. In this paper, an improved DP model is used to formulate a reconfigurati...
