Abstract. Nature is considered one promising area to search for inspiration in designing robotic systems. Some work in swarm robotics has tried to build systems that resemble distr...
Internal clock synchronization has been investigated, or employed, for quite a number of years, under the requirement of good upper bounds for the deviation, or accuracy, between ...
Intrusion-tolerant replication enables the construction of systems that tolerate a finite number of malicious faults. An arbitrary number of faults can be tolerated during system ...
It is widely accepted that transient failures will appear more frequently in chips designed in the near future due to several factors such as the increased integration scale. On t...
—The number of CPUs in chip multiprocessors is growing at the Moore’s Law rate, due to continued technology advances. However, new technologies pose serious reliability challen...
