The scbedulability of the system was analyzed through checkpointing and the energy saving was considered via dynamic voltage and frequency scaling. Simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm had better performance compared with the existing voltage allocation techniques. The proposed technique saves 51.5% energy over FT-Only and 19.9% over FT ＋ EC on average. Therefore, the proposed method was more appropriate for aperiodic tasks in embedded real-time systems.展开更多

In this paper, we give three main results. First, a fault-free path P[u, v] of length at least 2n - 2fv - 1 （respectively, 2n - 2fv - 2） can be embedded on Qn,k with fv ＋ f≤ n- 1 when dQn,k （u, v） is odd （respectively, dQ,~,k （u, v） is even）. Secondly, an Q,,k is （n - 2） edgefault-free hyper Hamiltonianaceable when n （ 3） and k have the same parity. Lastly, a fault-free cycle of length at least 2n - 2fv can be embedded on Qn,k with f~ 〈 n - 1 and fv＋f≤2n-4.展开更多

Let Fu be the set of faulty vertices in the n-dimensional enhanced hypercube Qn,k （n ≥ 3, 1 ≤ k 〈≤n - 1）. When IFvl = 2, we showed that Qn,k - Fv contains a fault-free cycle of every even length from 4 to 2n - 4 where n （n ≥ 3） and k have the same parity; and contains a fault-free cycle of every even length from 4 to 2n - 4, simultaneously, contains a cycle of every odd length from n-k ＋ 2 to 2^n-3 where n （≥ 3） and k have the different parity. Furthermore, when ｜Fv｜ = fv ≤ n - 2, we prove that there exists the longest fault-free cycle, which is of even length 2^n - 2fv whether n （n ≥ 3） and k have the same parity or not; and there exists the longest fault-free cycle, which is of odd length 2^n - 2fv ＋ 1 in Qn,k - Fv where n （≥ 3） and k have the different parity.展开更多

Considering the characteristics of real-time tasks in ECS, an integrated algorithm is proposed to schedule real-time tasks and to guarantee that all real-time tasks are completed before their deadlines even in the presence of faults. Based on the nonpreemptive critical-section protocol (NCSP), this paper analyzes the blocking time introduced by resource conflicts of relevancy tasks in fault-tolerant multiprocessor systems. An extended schedulability condition is presented to check the assignment feasibility of a given task to a processor. A primary/backup approach and on-line replacement of failed processors are used to tolerate processor failures. The analysis reveals that the integrated algorithm bounds the blocking time, requires limited overhead on the number of processors, and still assures good processor utilization. This is also demonstrated by simulation results. Both analysis and simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in ECS.展开更多
