| Summary: | architecture for a software-implemented fault-tolerance cause the computations to fail. This thesis presents a novel computing systems. The objective of this research is to coverage measurements of a minimal implementation of the develop the conceptual framework for a purely software-based, distributed computations performed on these systems. As the distributed, multi-tiered layer envelopes user applications, efficient and effective. enables dynamic run-time selection of the most appropriate enabling it to perform fault-tolerance related actions apart fault-tolerant algorithm, and is, therefore, not restricted from, and transparent to the application. Its modular design grows, so does the probability that a hardware failure will Large multicomputer systems are inherently unreliable because layer, designed for the purpose of enhancing the reliability of distributed computations performed on large multicomputer of their enormous complexity. This has a direct impact on proposed layer are presented, and indicate that user-level recovery in a parallel environment. The symmetrically size and execution time of these distributed computations software-implemented fault-tolerance can be reasonably systems, such as massively parallel computers and distributed to one particular fault-tolerant method.
