  2. Fault tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_tolerance

    Fault tolerance is the ability of a system to maintain proper operation despite failures or faults in one or more of its components. This capability is essential for high-availability, mission-critical, or even life-critical systems. Fault tolerance specifically refers to a system's capability to handle faults without any degradation or downtime.

  3. Redundancy (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)

    In engineering and systems theory, redundancy is the intentional duplication of critical components or functions of a system with the goal of increasing reliability of the system, usually in the form of a backup or fail-safe, or to improve actual system performance, such as in the case of GNSS receivers, or multi-threaded computer processing.

  4. Triple modular redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_modular_redundancy

    For example, 5-modular redundancy communication systems (such as FlexRay) use the majority of 5 samples – if any 2 of the 5 results are erroneous, the other 3 results can correct and mask the fault. Modular redundancy is a basic concept, dating to antiquity, while the first use of TMR in a computer was the Czechoslovak computer SAPO, in the ...

  5. Control reconfiguration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_reconfiguration

    Control reconfiguration is an active approach in control theory to achieve fault-tolerant control for dynamic systems. [1] It is used when severe faults , such as actuator or sensor outages, cause a break-up of the control loop , which must be restructured to prevent failure at the system level.

  6. Single point of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_point_of_failure

    Systems can be made robust by adding redundancy in all potential SPOFs. Redundancy can be achieved at various levels. Redundancy can be achieved at various levels. The assessment of a potential SPOF involves identifying the critical components of a complex system that would provoke a total systems failure in case of malfunction . [ 2 ]

  7. High-redundancy actuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-redundancy_actuation

    The aim of high redundancy actuation is not to produce man-made muscles, but to use the same principle of cooperation in technical actuators to provide intrinsic fault tolerance. To achieve this, a high number of small actuator elements are assembled in parallel and in series to form one actuator (see Series and parallel circuits).

  8. Byzantine fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_fault

    Byzantine fault tolerance is only concerned with broadcast consistency, that is, the property that when a component broadcasts a value to all the other components, they all receive exactly this same value, or in the case that the broadcaster is not consistent, the other components agree on a common value themselves.

  9. TTEthernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TTEthernet

    TTEthernet (i.e. Ethernet switch with SAE AS6802) integrates a model of fault-tolerance and failure management [citation needed]. TTEthernet switch can implement a reliable redundancy management and dataflow (datastream) integration to assure message transmission even in case of a switch failure.
