ECE 753: FAULT-TOLERANT COMPUTING Kewal K.Saluja Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Wrapup Lecture
Overview • What we did? • What we did not and why? • What next • Potential applications of fault-tolerance in near future • Final: what, when and where? • Conclusion ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What we did? (1) • See the course contents for details • Items summary – before the final • Fault tolerant schemes and basic methods • Fault modeling • Testing • Redundancy – hardware, software, time, information • Reliability, availability models • System level diagnosis ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What we did? (2) • See the course contents for details • Items summary – before the final (contd.) • ECC • Watchdog methods • Architecture level fault tolerance • Checkpointing and recovery ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What we did? (3) • Items sumary – after the final • Software fault tolerance • Reconfiguration • Network architectures and fault tolerance in networks • Some more basic definitions – Byzantine faults, sensitivity, precision, accuracy, false alarm, • Sensor fusion (today) ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What we did not and why? • Items summary • ABFT – algorithmic based fault tolerence • Probabilistic diagnosis • Survivability • Defect tolerance and reconfiguation • Security • Simulation techniques • … • Why • It is nearly impossible to cover all these in one course ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What next? (1) • What has already required to be fault-tolerant for electronics • 911 is already expected to be fault-tolerant • Medical applications are expected to be fault-tolerant • … • Where are we heading to in near future • Autonomous automotive vehicles • Social media network • It is causing change in governments (revolutions) • Character assassination ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
What next? (2) • Final exam • Substituted by four project presentations • Day, Time and Location • Wednesday May 14 • Time: 5:05 PM • Room 4611 Engineering Hall • (Room is reserved after the ECE faculty meeting is over) ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
Conclusion That is all folks ECE 753 Fault Tolerant Computing
