Upper Bounding Fault Coverage by Structural Analysis and Signal Monitoring
A new algorithm for identifying stuck faults in combinational circuits that cannot be detected by a given input sequence is presented. Other than pre and post-processing steps, ce...

Testing During Refactoring: Adding Aspects to Legacy Systems
Moving program code that implements cross-cutting concerns into aspects can improve the maintainability of legacy systems. This kind of refactoring, called aspectualization, can a...

An advanced performance analysis of self-stabilizing protocols: stabilization time with transient faults during convergence
A self-stabilizing protocol is a brilliant framework for fault tolerance. It can recover from any number and any type of transient faults and eventually converge to its intended b...

Fault injection in distributed Java applications
In a network consisting of several thousands computers, the occurrence of faults is unavoidable. Being able to test the behaviour of a distributed program in an environment where ...

Fault tolerance with real-time Java
After having drawn up a state of the art on the theoretical feasibility of a system of periodic tasks scheduled by a preemptive algorithm at fixed priorities, we show in this art...

Generation of broadside transition fault test sets that detect four-way bridging faults
Generation of n -detection test sets is typically done for a single fault model. In this work we investigate the generation of n -detection test sets by pairing each fault of a ta...

On the Prevalence of Sensor Faults in Real-World Deployments
—Various sensor network measurement studies have reported instances of transient faults in sensor readings. In this work, we seek to answer a simple question: How often are such ...

The Effect of the Number of Defects on Estimates Produced by Capture-Recapture Models
Project managers use inspection data as input to capture-recapture (CR) models to estimate the total number of faults present in a software artifact. The CR models use the number ...
