While extensive studies have been carried out in the past several years for many sensor applications, they cannot be applied to the network with extremely low and intermittent con...
A new hardware developmental model that shows strong robust transient fault-tolerant abilities and is motivated by embryonic development and a honeycomb structure is presented. Ca...
Clock-related operations are one of the many sources of replica non-determinism and of replica inconsistency in fault-tolerant distributed systems. In passive replication, if the ...

- The problem of determining lower bounds for the energy cost of a given nanoscale design is addressed via a complexity theory-based approach. This paper provides a theoretical fra...
Abstract. Software designs equipped with specification of dependability techniques can help engineers to develop critical systems. In this work, we start to envision how a softwar...
