software tool for evaluating software-implemented fault tolerance techniques
Abstract: "This report presents a software-implemented approach for creating fault-tolerant software for critical applications in a cost- effective way. The proposed approach provides a high level of user- transparency by employing object-oriented principles of data encapsulation and polymorphism. Underlying dependability is achieved by using a voting mechanism on memory to detect and correct errors. A comprehensive Software Fault-Injection Tool (SFIT) has been developed to assess the efficacy of the proposed approach, Experimental results for CPU-time overhead, result classes, improvement factor and improvement factor for dangerous outputs are presented."
