    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fault tolerance; concurrent error detection; dependability; coverage; fault injection; experimental validation; boundary scan;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the problem of validating and estimating the effectiveness of error handling mechanisms in computer systems. The main contribution is an assessment of the effectiveness and usefulness of several physical fault injection techniques. READ MORE

  3. 3. On the Design and Validation of Fault Containment Regions in Distributed Communication Systems

    Author : Håkan Sivencrona; RISE; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fault handling and membership agreement; Byzantine faults; asymmetric faults; fault injection; time-triggered protocol; fault containment regions; slightly-out-of-specification faults; validation;

    Abstract : This thesis has a two fold focus where the first is an evaluation of a time-triggered communication protocol implementation, TTP-C1, which was stressed by use of heavy-ion fault injection. The gathered result showed a novel type of failures, earlier known only from theory, so-called slightly-out-of-specification faults, that manifested as Byzantine failures with resulting system inconsistence.
