With the increasing complexity of computing systems, complete hardware reliability can no longer be guaranteed. We need, however, to ensure overall system reliability. One of the most important features of artificial neural networks is…

This paper proposes a new robust data-driven control method for linear systems with bounded disturbances, where the system model and disturbances are unknown. Due to disturbances, accurately determining the true system becomes challenging…

Latency-insensitive design mitigates increasing interconnect delay and enables productive component reuse in complex digital systems. This design style has been adopted in high-level design flows because untimed functional blocks connected…

Accurate and quick identification of high-impedance faults is critical for the reliable operation of distribution systems. Unlike other faults in power grids, HIFs are very difficult to detect by conventional overcurrent relays due to the…

Recent progress in fault detection and identification increasingly relies on sophisticated techniques for fault detection, applied through either centralized or distributed approaches. Instead of increasing the sophistication of the fault…

Failure detection is a fundamental building block for ensuring fault tolerance in large scale distributed systems. There are lots of approaches and implementations in failure detectors. Providing flexible failure detection in off-the-shelf…

In long-term deployments of sensor networks, monitoring the quality of gathered data is a critical issue. Over the time of deployment, sensors are exposed to harsh conditions, causing some of them to fail or to deliver less accurate data.…

An arbitrarily reliable quantum computer can be efficiently constructed from noisy components using a recursive simulation procedure, provided that those components fail with probability less than the fault-tolerance threshold. Recent…

Environmental noise (e.g.heat, ionized particles, etc.) causes transient faults in hardware, which lead to corruption of stored values. Mission-critical devices require such faults to be mitigated by fault-tolerance --- a combination of…

With the increasing number of compute components, failures in future exa-scale computer systems are expected to become more frequent. This motivates the study of novel resilience techniques. Here, we extend a recently proposed…

A detection system, modeled in a graph, is composed of "detectors" positioned at a subset of vertices in order to uniquely locate an ``intruder" at any vertex. \emph{Identifying codes} use detectors that can sense the presence or absence of…

Fault models are indispensable for many EDA tasks, so as for design and implementation of quantum hardware. In this article, we propose a fault model for superconducting quantum systems. Our fault model reflects the real fault behavior in…

Data redundancy techniques have been tested in several different applications to provide fault tolerance and performance gains. The use of these techniques is mostly seen at the hardware, device driver, or file system level. In practice,…

The central topic of this book is application-level fault-tolerance, that is the methods, architectures, and tools that allow to express a fault-tolerant system in the application software of our computers. Application-level fault-tolerance…

Machine learning models commonly exhibit unexpected failures post-deployment due to either data shifts or uncommon situations in the training environment. Domain experts typically go through the tedious process of inspecting the failure…

Software debugging is a very time-consuming process, which is even worse for multi-threaded programs, due to the non-deterministic behavior of thread-scheduling algorithms. However, the debugging time may be greatly reduced, if automatic…

Debugging is one of the most time-consuming and expensive tasks in software development. Several formula-based fault localization (FBFL) methods have been proposed, but they fail to guarantee a set of diagnoses across all failing tests or…

Parallel computing is very important to accelerate the performance of software systems. Additionally, considering that a recurring challenge is to process high data volumes continuously, stream processing emerged as a paradigm and software…

The growing availability of sensors within semiconductor manufacturing processes makes it feasible to detect defective wafers with data-driven models. Without directly measuring the quality of semiconductor devices, they capture the…

The paper addresses the issue of reliability of complex embedded control systems in the safety-critical environment. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to design controller that (i) guarantees the safety of nonlinear physical…
