Abstract

A number of fault tolerant mechanisms have been proposed for sequential and concurrent systems. Discussion of these mechanisms has concentrated on structural aspects; a systematic approach to the design and placement of fault tolerant structures has been lacking. This paper considers techniques for the systematic and proper placement of software fault tolerant structures for distributed systems. It describes the design of such a system and shows how the error detection and recovery mechanisms can be included in the system model. The methods which are presented should have a wide range of application including microprocessor and transputer implementation.
