Modern distributed industrial control systems need improvements in their dependability. In this paper we study the dependability of a fault tolerant distributed industrial control ...
This paper presents a new conceptual model, the XBWModel. Distributed computing is becoming a cost effective way to implement safety critical control systems. To support the devel...
Industry currently employs a product line approach to software development and deployment as a means to enhance quality while reducing development cost and time. This effort has cr...
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a method for assessing cause-consequence relations between component faults and hazards that may occur during the lifetime of a system. ...
Today’s CPUs consume a significant amount of power and generate a high amount of heat, requiring an active cooling system to support reliable operations. In case of cooling sys...
