The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

© 2017, Springer International Publishing AG. Trade-offs between extra-functional properties, such as performance, reliability and resource utilisation, have been recognised as crucial in system design. The concept of Holistic Fault Tolerance (HFT) is aimed at targeting these trade-offs in run-time system control. Previous work has shown that HFT systems can have significant complexity, which may require sophisticated modelling at the design stage. This paper presents a novel HFT design methodology based on hierarchical modelling and stochastic simulations. The former caters to system complexity and the latter estimates extra-functional properties in the trade-offs. The method is demonstrated with an application example of number plate recognition software.
