Produktbeschreibung
Timo Warns has developed tractable fault models that, while being non-probabilistic, are accurate for dependent and propagating faults. Using seminal problems such as consensus and constructing coteries, he demonstrates how the new models can be used to design and evaluate effective and efficient means of fault tolerance.
Despite means of fault prevention such as extensive testing or formal veri?cation, errors inevitably occur during system operation. To avoid subsequent system fa- ures, critical distributed systems, therefore, require engineering of means for fault tolerance. Achieving fault tolerance requires some redundancy, which, unfor- nately, is bound to limitations. Appropriate fault models are needed to describe which types of faults and how many faults are tolerable in a certain context. Pre- ous research on distributed systems has often introduced fault models that abstract too many relevant system properties such as dependent and propagating com- nent failures. In this research work, Timo Warns introduces new structural failure models that are both accurate (to cover relevant properties) and tractable (to be - alyzable). These new failure models cover dependent failures (for instance, failure correlation by geographic proximity) and propagating failures (for instance, pr- agation by service utilization). To evaluate the new failure models, Timo Warns shows how some seminal problems in distributed systems can be solved with - proved resilience and ef?ciency, as compared to existing solutions. Particularly, the textbook-style introduction to distributed systems and the r- orous presentation of the new failure models and their evaluation may serve as an example for other software engineering research projects - which is why this book is a valuable addition to both a researcher's and a student's library.
