ETFIDS: Efficient Transient Fault Injection and Detection System

Abstract Details

2018, Master of Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, EECS - Electrical Engineering.
Computer use in high dependability applications is rapidly increasing. However, even when correctly designed, computer systems can still suffer from temporary errors due to various factors. So to increase the reliability of modern computer systems, they should be able to detect, locate, isolate and recover from software, hardware or security attacks errors. Fault injection simulates the effect of unexpected errors on the system; they are useful in the evaluation and validation of dependable systems. As part of this thesis, we developed an efficient transient fault injection and detection system (ETFIDS) for evaluating the fault tolerance and fault response of software applications. Despite being portable and of high performance, ETFIDS introduced a new fault outcome analysis technique which evaluates, concurrently, both the faulty and the fault-free system behavior during runtime for better analysis and efficiency.
